The feature documentary was screened in the World Documentary strand of the prestigious festival which ran in Park City, Utah from 21 - 31 January. 'His & Hers' has received a positive reaction throughout the event and inked distribution deals in Australia and New Zealand during the week.
Produced by Andrew Freedman with funding from Bord Scannán na hÉireann/the Irish Film Board, the film explores women's relationships with men by visiting moments from the lives of 70 female characters.
Critics have responded well to the film with Screen Daily quoted as saying the film is a “winning, deceptively-simple Irish film” which “has the sweetly seductive nature of a ‘Once’” and John Anderson of Variety describing the film as a "delightful, disarming film.... Rigorously and remarkably cinematic.”
Other critics have unanimously praised the Irish film. “Wardrop’s gift for observation is impeccable; each scene is beautifully composed” says Memoriando Blog, “The honesty and openness Wardrop gets from his subjects is stunning…. The film is funny, moving and always affecting,” says Blast, Boston’s Online Magazine.
Irish audiences will have a chance to see ‘His & Hers’ when it is released in cinemas later this year.
