Description

The What's the Story short film competition was held as part of Rathmullan Film Festival 24.

As a result of an open invitation, 12 new and emerging filmmakers were challenged to create a three-minute film using archival footage. Póca Productions of Donegal worked with the participants over the course of a number of online workshops to produce these amazing films, all of which were screened at the Rathmullan Film Festival.

This film was created by Matthew McGowan for for the short film competition held by the Rathmullan Film Festival. It is a a visual poem on the nature of war. McGowan uses original writing, and excerpts from WB Yeats' iconic poem, Easter, 1916, to convey an evocative meditation on life, death and the harrowing legacy of war.
