Dublin director wins Stella Artois short film award

Dublin director Brendan Muldowney has won this year's Stella Artois short film award for his horror flick the Ten Steps.

The film, which was one of 12 short-listed for the award, has already won a number of other plaudits internationally.

The 10-minute movie is about a young girl descending into a cellar during a power cut.

The Stella Artois award was established in 2001 and is open to all Irish short-film directors.
