WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE & WHY

GIVE ME DIRECTION

In an update to last year’s format, Bord Scannan na hÉireann/ the Irish Film Board is delighted to announce that three guest curators will programme a day and half of public interviews, debates, screenings and readings: all on the exciting and intangible topic of comedy at the Give Me Direction Screenwriting Conference 2010.

Lenny Abrahamson (Adam & Paul, Garage), Sharon Horgan (Pulling,  Angelo’s), and Pat McCabe (The Butcher Boy, Breakfast on Pluto) will select some of the people they think are funny and smart who will in turn talk about and screen some of the things that they think are funny and smart.

The event will take place in Dublin from Thursday 17th - Friday 18th June 2010. Further details of the event and the release date for tickets will be announced shortly.

Give Me Direction is run in association with the Jameson Dublin International Film Festival.
