We are delighted to announce that North Circular, written & directed by Luke McManus  will be our Feature  Film Presentation!

North Circular is a multi award-winning documentary musical that travels the length of Dublin’s North Circular Road, from the Phoenix Park in the west to Dublin Port in the east. On the way it encounters some interesting characters and explores contemporary and historical narratives of the city and the nation.
​
Music is one of the storytelling devices of North Circular and the film stars many of the leading lights of the new Irish folk scene including  Lisa O’Neill, John Francis Flynn, Ian Lynch, Willa White, Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin, Séan Ó Tuama & Gemma Dunleavy.

North Circular is written & directed by Luke McManus
edited by John Murphy, produced by Luke McManus & Elaine Gallagher

“The Bleeding Pig Festival is really well organised in a great venue. A brilliant programme of shorts. Its size makes it an ideal place to meet and network with other filmmakers. I met a future collaborator in Sinead O’Laughlin at the festival. I’d highly recommend it”
