    CORK FILM TRAIL @ CIFF2022

    While moving between screenings over the next 10 days, or simply strolling around Cork City, you can experience the Festival beyond the cinema on CIFF’s unique city-wide Cork Film Trail.

    Presented in collaboration with the Irish Costume Archive Project and Cork City Council Placemaking Fund, and sponsored by Murphy’s, the trail showcases stunning costumes from Irish film and television at four locations: The Metropole Hotel, Gate Cinema, The River Lee Hotel and Singer’s Corner (Patrick Street).

    The vibrant displays highlight themes of the Festival programme, including music, sustainability, fashion, history and the 1922 Commemoration, and showcase Cork’s rich film and cultural heritage. Keep your eyes peeled for some familiar outfits, including costume designer Sandy Powell’s lavish creation for Olivia Colman’s character Queen Anne in The Favourite, and Lorna Marie Mugan’s sustainably sourced clothing worn by Normal People’s Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar Jones.

    An online Trail map, accompanying podcasts with costume designers, a competition and film-themed Pub Quiz on Wednesday 16th November complete the Trail experience, all while offering the chance to soak up the Festival atmosphere and enjoy Cork’s legendary hospitality.

    Presented in collaboration with the Irish Costume Archive Project, with the support of Cork City Council’s Placemaking Fund and sponsored by Murphy’s.

    PROGRAMME UPDATE: THE WILD ONE

    The Wild One, an illuminating portrait of theatre director and filmmaker Jack Garfein, has been moved to screen in the Triskel Arts Center at 20:00 on Saturday, 12th Nov in place of its previously published date next Monday 14th.

    Narrated by Willem Dafoe, the film tracks Garfein’s traumatic early experiences during the Holocaust, through his escape to New York and the beginning of his creative life. A key figure in the Actor’s Studio, he became a celebrated theatre director, and a controversial filmmaker. His uncompromising vision was steadfast throughout his life, inspiring this vivid tribute to a great artist.

    12th November – The Triskel – 20:00
