Written and directed by Frank Berry, ‘Michael Inside’ stars Dafhyd Flynn, Moe Dunford and Lalor Roddy and tells the story of Michael McCrea, an impressionable 18-year-old living with his grandfather Francis in a Dublin housing estate, who gets caught holding a bag of drugs for his friend’s older brother and is sentenced to three months in prison.
It premiered at the Galway Film Fleadh last summer where it won Best Irish Film and Dafhyd picked up the Bingham Ray New Talent Award. Since then it’s been wowing audiences and critics alike. It picked up the Audience Award at the Cork International Film Festival in November, the Best Film Award at the IFTA’s in February and has garnered numerous five-star reviews.
Produced by Donna Eperon, Tristan Orpen Lynch and Aoife O’Sullivan for Subotica and Write Direction Films, the film was made with funding from the Irish Film Board.
Wildcard Distribution will be releasing Michael Inside in Irish cinemas on Friday 6th April 2018. You can see the Best Film Award presentation at the IFTA ceremony here.
