Hothouse Flowers
During the ten days of the festival, the public can expect concerts, the lat- est and most signi cant lm creations from Ireland, attractive exhibitions, lit- erary evenings, workshops and other at- tractive cultural events. Renowned Irish rock group Hothouse Flowers will per- form, while Festival guests will include, among others, one of the world’s most signi cant lmmakers – famous Irish playwright, director and screenwriter Jim Sheridan. “The idea for me to invite Sheridan to attend the festival came about af- ter I watched Ivan Marinovic’s lm The Black Pin. This lm is a powerful state- ment about the people of his country. It reminded me of Jim Sheridan, who also made – along with Richard Harris – the very well-known lm The Field, about the Irish and their country,”said Belgrade Irish Festival Director Jas Kaminski. Sheridan will open Irish Film Week on 16 th March from 8pm at the Museum of Cinematography (Kosovska 11). This occasion will include a screening of his lm In the Name of the Father, after which this accomplished Irish director will con- verse with the audience in attendance. Five of his lms will be screened under the scope of Irish Film Week: My Left Foot, In the Name of the Father, The Boxer, The Field and In America. The lm programme will also include a screening of the documentary The Man Who Shot Beckett, which forms part of a special festival segment dedicat- ed to famous Irish writer Samuel Beckett. In addition to the lm, the audience is also awaited by a series of lectures, thea- tre plays, and the photo ex- hibition “Beckett on Film”... Within the framework of the festival’s Visual Arts pro- gramme, famous street artist James Earley will paint a mural in Belgrade city centre, while the public will also have an opportunity to see an exhibition of the works of fa- mous Irish photographer Nigel Swann. Thanks to the Belgrade Irish Festi- val, the Serbian capital will this year once again join other major world cities that commemorate 17 th March, the Irish na- tional holiday of St. Patrick’s Day, while several locations throughout the city, in- cluding Ada Bridge, will be lit up in lights of Irish green.

Taj film je snažna izjava o narodu u njegovoj zemlji.
