An Ríomh
Like any timeless romance it begins when Girl meets Boy.
Aine agrees to meet Ciaron. Their walk through the forest is filled with sunlight and promise—until shadows gather.
Hope spirals into darkness. Trust and safety are shattered.
In the aftermath, something ancient awakens, unyielding and vengeful, imbued with the voices of the silenced.
The line between victim and predator blurs as the story plunges into a nightmare of haunting resilience, where generations of fury converge into a final, bone-deep horror that lingers long after.

STAR QUEST!
STAR QUEST is a unique fusion of retro sci-fi and poignant human drama.
We enter the final days of CONOR (Patrick Bergin), a once world-famous actor, now wasting away in a hospital bed. Jaded, rejected, he retreats into lost fantasies of former greatness, seeking solace in reliving the adventures of his beloved role - CAPTAIN CHUCK. Amidst the bleakness of hospital life, a small chance for redemption appears in the form of SEAN (Charlie Duffy), a young terminally ill boy.
As Conor opens himself up to this boy, he discovers that sometimes, heroes are not just born on the screen, but also in the hearts of those who dare to dream.
Beneath the shimmering veneer of the retro sci-fi fantasies lies a moving narrative of hope, friendship, and acceptance. Emotional, cinematic, and rooted in character, 'STAR QUEST’ is a tribute to the enduring legacy of classic science fiction, and a testament to the extraordinary power of the human heart.
