IFTN caught up with writer/director Frank Berry to chat about Frank’s new film ‘Michael Inside’, which finishes principal photography today, after a five week shoot and, according to Frank, “one and a half years research”.

‘Michael Inside’ tells the story of an 18 year old young man who holds a bag of drugs for a friend’s older brother, and how this action changes his life, leading to arrest, pre-sentencing, and prison, and ultimately explores how this affects his behaviour.

Berry had spent 18 months in a very “really creative and immersive process” researching the film, and working with Pathways, the educational part of the Irish prison system every week, to meet and talk with ex prisoners. “The film is an expression of their lives, based on many lives, and has been a very rewarding process.”

“We’ve been working with a core group of 20 on the film. There are special extras on screen, giving great authenticity to the film. It’s been a very empowering and positive experience, very collaborative”.

Berry, who’s debut feature film ‘I Used to Live Here’, is working with many of the same crew and HODs for ‘Michael Inside’ –
