Hozier video filmmaker to open youth film festival

Brendan Canty, 26, who studied multimedia in CIT, will share his story with the next generation of filmmakers attending the Sixth First Cut! Youth Film Festival in Youghal.
Brendan shot to international fame in 2013 when he and his friend, Conal Thompson, were hired by Hozier to shoot the video for his Grammy-nominated song. Hozier wanted to address the issue of the repression of gay people in Russia.
