‘Patrick’s Day’ screening in 50 cinemas across US from March 5th-8th

'Patrick's Day' was released to Irish cinemas by Wildcard Distribution on February 6th
Award-winning Irish film ‘Patrick’s Day’ will this week be shown in 50 cinemas across the US.

The Terry McMahon film was chosen to screen in 50 US cinemas after winning the Manhattan Short Feature Film Project last month and will be screening from March 5th to March 8th.

Audiences at each venue will vote on whether the film should return to this cinema for a theatrical release in 2015. If the majority vote “yes” then, if the producers choose, the film will return to that cinema for a series of screenings that year.

Speaking about the screenings, writer/director Terry McMahon said: ‘The international embrace of ‘Patrick’s Day’ has been phenomenal. Releasing in 50 screens across America is the stuff of fantasy and releasing across Ireland at the same time is, frankly. the stuff of boyhood dreams come true.’

The Feature Film Project is a collective of Art House Cinemas across the USA with the focus of taking feature films from the festival circuit and moving them into the cinema circuit.

'Patrick's Day' will also be showing on the European festival circuit this month with a screening at the Irish Film Festa in Rome which is due to run from March 26th-29th. It is also set to play at the Sofia International Film Festival (12th-15th March) in Bulgaria next week, before playing in competition at the Prague International Film Festival the week after.

Terry McMahon is currently developing his next feature film ‘Dancehall Bitch’, details of which can be seen here.
