Be Kind Rewind features cult flicks like 1997’s teen alienation allegory Nowhere, or the vivid biopic of a life less ordinary, Nang By Nang (2018). 

 

Discover bold New Wave flicks like Daisies (1966) and Funeral Parade of Roses (1969), and the still-topical societal snapshot Pressure (1976), plus Hollywood classic Creature From the Black Lagoon (1954), all chosen by our talented group of Irish Film Curators.

​

Plus join us for DIFF Circle: Meet the Programmers on Saturday as we meet the curators and find out everything there is to know about building and programming a film festival from scratch. 

​

And on Sunday we bring the films to life at the Light House with a free Collage Workshop and Tea Ceremony to celebrate Daisies and Funeral Parade of Roses.
