From Rob Reeves, who writes:

I’m currently doing a series of 12 comedy sketches/short films in the hopes of getting a show commissioned. I’d love if your readers  could check out one or more of the three already completed [see also below’. They’re all 3-5 minutes long and have received a great response so far at screenings around Dublin.

Co-producer Natasha Duffy writes:

In a post Brexit Europe, this short documentary looks at the lives of non nationals living in Ireland making their way as ‘human directionals’ on the streets of Dublin.
We meet Houston, Sandip and Felipe. As they go about their daily routine on Grafton Street the once faceless silhouettes become warm characters; generously sharing stories of family, encounters with strangers and their future plans.

Directed by Stephen Rogers

Featuring Felipe Medeiros, Sandip Babubhai Patel, Houston Mathrews Phiri.

I just released the first single and video off of my upcoming album yesterday. For the video I travelled 1300 miles around Ireland and shot at 200 locations. I’m currently doing a 6 date tour from Mizen head to Malin Head up along the Wild Atlantic Way to promote it.

te amo/je t’aime/i love you – by poet Alvy Carragher

Alvy writes:

I’ve just released this new poetry video, for my sister, about fighting depression. It’s one of the poems from my upcoming collection on June 13 with Salmon Poetry and addresses the frustration/powerlessness of both the sufferer and those looking on. It also covers things like how much worse social media makes this kind of situation.
