Kilkenny hurling and camogie stars to feature in new movie as part of the Arts Festival
The short film will be screened between 12noon and 2pm this Monday
Some very familiar Kilkenny hurling and camogie legends are set to appear like never before as part of the Kilkenny Arts Festival.
‘All to Play For’ is a dance film that celebrates former hurling and camogie stars. Developed and shot on location in Kilkenny with All-Ireland medal winners Anne Dalton, Ann Downey, Liam Fennelly and Tommy Malone, the short movie lifts the viewer into something felt rather than simply seen, according to the producers.
“The film uses dance to embody connection, community, drive and determination, showing that, even after the whistle blows, it’s still all to play for,” a spokesperson commented.
The film is approximately ten minutes long and will play on a loop between 12noon and 2pm on Monday, August 10.
The project is commissioned and funded by Kilkenny County Council’s Public Arts Programme 2024-2027, funded by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.
Kilkenny County Council’s vision for public arts is to ensure that people who live in and visit Kilkenny experience captivating, challenging and culturally diverse high-quality public art projects.
