Film|Makers

Featured Image

For the month of August we will be screening Film|Makers in the Ulster Folk Museum’s original Picturehouse.

In celebration of Northern Ireland’s rich craft landscape, past and present, five makers were invited to produce new work in response to heritage footage from Northern Ireland Screen’s Digital Film Archive. These film show the makers’ responses alongside the archive footage that inspired them.

Film|Makers was made possible thanks to the initial support of R-Space Gallery, Arts Council of Northern Ireland, The Braid Mid-Antrim Museum, BFI Film Audience Network and BFI Unlocking Film Heritage awarding funds from the National Lottery. A special thanks to the original film makers and rights holders of the archive material that continues to be such a rich source of inspiration.
