Liath Hannon: Happy to bring trans representation to Irish screens

Adam Lunnon-Collery and Liath Hannon in Girls & Boys.
Two people form a connection over the course of one memorable night in Girls & Boys, writer-director Donncha Gilmore’s new Irish feature.
Set over a night out in Dublin, rugby player Jace meets an aspiring filmmaker, Charlie, at a student party. They’re both Trinity students but come from different worlds - Charlie is trans and many of her friends are queer, while Jace’s friends are mostly straight men from sport and college life. Regardless of their differences they click in a movie awarded Best Independent Irish Film at this year’s Galway Film Fleadh.
