Dingle International Film Festival offers €5,000 cash prize for Irish language Short Film Proposal.

The Dingle International Film Festival is delighted to announce the second ‘Físín’, a call to filmmakers to submit a short film proposal in the Irish language.

The competition was a wonderful success last year. The winner was Cathal Ó Cuaig who finished filming his winning script (An Cluiche) at the end of 2011.

The winner of the competition will receive a cash prize of €5,000 and €1,000 worth of lighting equipment hire sponsored by Cian de Buitléar’s company Teach Solais.

Five filmmakers will be selected to travel to the next Dingle International Film Festival in March. Each of the five will be treated as festival guests and  will be given the opportunity to pitch their proposal to a panal during the festival. A wonderful panel has been put together, including, writer Louise Ní Fhiannachta, writer Marina Ní Dhubháin and director Cathal Watters(Muide Éire).

The opportunity has been put together by the festival to encourage writing of film scripts in the Irish language. Tor Cotton, one of the festival sponsors came up with the idea.

The competition is aimed at people who combine a special interest in film alongside a commitment to the Irish language. The festival is keen to see proposals from all local dialects. This opportunity is open to any individual or group from Transitional students right through to professionals. The application is available to download at www.dinglefilmfestival.com or you can email fisin@dinglefilmfestival.com. The closing date for entries is Febuary 17th 2012.

The winning pitch at the festival will receive €5,000 cash prize and €1,000 worth of rental lighting equipment and will return to Dingle with their finilised film in 2013. Each finilist will also receive a personalised commemorative leather notebook designed by Conor Holden and full access to the festival.

The Dingle International Film Festival, established in 2007, home to The Gregory Peck Award and who’s guests have included Gabriel Byrne, Cillian Murphy, Jim Sheridan, Sir Alan Parker, Saoirse Ronan & Sarah Miles,  will have its 6^th edition next March opening the 15^th March and running until Sunday the 18^th March 2012.
