The Corona Fastnet Short Film Festival Schull, County Cork, 26-29 May 2011
Abstract
Despite the picturesque town’s remoteness, the wonderful international spread of countries represented by short films at the Schull festival is perfect testament to the imaginative resourcefulness of its organisers. This year Maurice Seezer, Pauline Cotter, Helen Wills, Maria Pizzuti, and the other members of the steering committee brought 131 short films to Schull from countries as diverse as New Zealand, America and Lebanon. The small town proved itself perfectly capable of being the active hub of an energetic and sprawling global medium.
