In the Shadow of Beirut: Ireland's Oscar entry focuses on personal stories
In the Shadow of Beirut screens at the Arc (former Gate) cinema for IndieCork.
Nominated by Ireland as its entry for Best International Feature at next spring’s Oscars, In the Shadow of Beirut has also qualified to be selected in the Best Documentary category. The Irish movie’s international festival run continues with a forthcoming screening at IndieCork, where the film shows the struggles of ordinary people living in a city often described as “the Paris of the Middle East”.
For Stephen Gerard Kelly - who co-directs with Garry Keane - the long-list nomination gives voice to the people who share their stories on screen.
