UCC researchers want to hear about people's movie memories

Did you see Mad Max in Macroom? Or Footloose in Fermoy? If so, a team of researchers from University College Cork want to hear your movie memories.

Rural moviegoers have been asked to give their accounts of going out to the pictures as part of a project aimed at documenting the role the cinema has played in small town life in Co Cork.

The project, titled ‘Movie Going Memories’, will record interviews with filmgoers for a web-based archive and a short documentary that will be premiered at the Schull Short Film Festival in May 2018.
