20 Cork Film Festival highlights: An impressive mix of Irish and international offerings

Some of the highlights of the Cork Film Festival this year.
British filmmaker Andrea Arnold (Fish Tank) directs our own Barry Keoghan in a coming-of-age story set in a marginalised society. It tells of an adolescent who lives with her dad and brother in a squat, whose life becomes transformed when she meets a mysterious stranger. Arnold blends fantasy with social reality in the film, lensed by Irish cinematographer Robbie Ryan.
