The Damned: Cork producer Conor Barry on making his dark thriller in Iceland

It wasn't easy to make a film in the cold, short winter days, but the Bishopstown man and his crew persevered, writes Esther McCarthy

Cork producer Conor Barry on his latest movie-making challenge - The Damned.

Inspired by and set in the Westfjords of Iceland, The Damned is a dark thriller with its location at its centre. Yet the movie is an Irish co-production - and for Cork-born producer Conor Barry, it represented his latest movie-making challenge.

“It was shot in the West Fjords, the very northwest of Iceland,” says Barry.
