Liam Gavin’s ‘Sunshower’ Selected for Raindance Fest

Shot in the Dublin Mountains in January 2009, ‘Sunshower’ was produced by Maggie Mitchell of Samson Films and was funded by the Filmbase/RTÉ short film scheme.

The short stars Jenn Murray (Dorothy Mills, Day of the Triffids) and IFTA winning actor Brendan Conroy (Kings), and depicts a somewhat frightening but ultimately redemptive encounter between a teenage girl and an old man, after she knocks him down with a stolen car in the middle of the countryside.

Kate McCullough acted as director of photography on the film, which was shot on the Red One camera (courtesy of Production Depot). It was edited by Anna-Maria O’Flanagan, and post production happened at Egg Post Production and Ardmore Sound.

The Raindance Film Festival is the UK's largest independent film festival. This year’s festival will take place in London from September 30th to October 11th. For more information visit www.raindance.co.uk
