Director Jim Sheridan (My Left Foot, In The Name Of The Father) will be in attendance for a post-screening Q&A about his career, collaborators and role as one of Ireland’s leading figures in popular cinema.
The Field (1990), based on John B. Keane’s legendary stage play, sees an epic dispute of land ownership pre-1916 played out in the village of Leenane, Co. Galway with career-best work from screen legends Richard Harris, John Hurt and Brenda Fricker. A massively influential text that is as vicious as it is gorgeous, this is a chance to (re)discover an unforgettable and monumental work of Irish Cinema.
