1 Chair’s Note Telling Irish stories on and supporting Irish creative talent telling these stories has always been a key focus of Bord Scannán na hÉireann/the Irish Film (IFB). Over the past year we have shown that these stories are enjoyed by audiences both at home and globally and have again proven what we believe to be the strength of Irish creative talent on screen.

We are working on two major initiatives in 2016: the launch of a five year strategy for the IFB and a joint IFB/BAI Strategy on Training. We expect to publish both of these reports in the spring of 2016. They will then form the basis of future planning and development across the sector in the coming years.

In 2015, the IFB acknowledged the underrepresentation of women in the Irish film industry. This is an issue which cannot be ignored. Actions are needed to address the gender inequality issue and the IFB is concerned enough to act and take a lead on this matter. We have outlined the measures we will be taking to address the problem and we are eager to implement them in 2016 and beyond.

I took the role of Acting Chair of the IFB this year after the sudden passing of our esteemed Chairman Bill O’Herlihy. In his two years as Chairman of the IFB, Bill was a tireless advocate of the Irish film industry and his hands-on approach to the role was a clear indicator of his enthusiasm. We at the IFB were proud to call him a colleague and a friend and he is greatly missed.

We begin 2016 with the confidence that IFB-funded films are ranked as being among the very best in the world. In 2015, Ireland was represented on the world stage from the Academy Awards®, to the world’s leading film festivals, to major box office successes with both Irish and international audiences. The IFB is proud to continue supporting Irish creative talent in the Irish film and TV industry.

Lady Rose is an elderly woman who has lived in a hospital for 40 years. Despite her bleak surroundings there is a light in her eyes that cannot be extinguished.

Dr Grene is drawn to her, compelled to discover her past and gain her freedom. Through her scripture we reveal a life of extraordinary love, great injustice and a remarkable young woman of courage whose only crime was to fall in love yet she survives the system’s brutal violations.

Set against a backdrop of troubled times locally and chaos internationally we learn of her ultimate triumph.

32 33 Without Name —

Land surveyor Eric, alienated from urban existence and those who love him, travels to a remote and unnamed woodland to assess its suitability for a dubious development project. Intangible elements are at play in this ethereal environment. The place seems to be imbued by an intelligence of sorts and fascinates the fragmenting Eric as much as it disturbs him. Following in the psychonautic footsteps of the mysterious Devoy, Eric attempts to communicate with his surroundings but risks becoming a prisoner of a place Without Name.

34 35 The Young Offenders —

Conor and Jock, two dopey looking inner- city teenagers from Cork, are best friends who dress the same, with dodgy haircuts and bum-fluff moustaches. Jock is a local legend — the uncatchable bike thief — much to the annoyance of bike cop Healy who has vowed to catch him.

Jock hears about a failed drug trafficking attempt in West Cork where 61 bales of cocaine, each of which is worth €7 million, end up in the sea.

Jock and Conor steal two bikes and travel on a 160km road trip hoping to find a bale with Healy in hot pursuit.

At its heart is a nuclear generator that will beat for perhaps another decade before the lights on Voyager 1 finally go out. But this little craft and its twin, Voyager II, will travel on for millions of years, each carrying a Golden Record bearing recordings and images of life on Earth. In all likelihood the Voyagers will outlast humanity.

The Farthest will celebrate these magnificent machines, the men and women who built them and the vision that propelled them farther than anyone could ever have hoped.

62 63 The Queen Leaving aside its importance as a historical chronicle, The Queen of Ireland is a super movie, replete with tragedy, comedy, a plucky, unlikely of Ireland heroine, and a sweeping dramatic arc. — Tara Brady, Irish Times

— The Panti Bliss documentary is a ground-breaker. Moving and moving fast, the story of O’Neill’s journey into Panti, and Panti’s journey into modern Ireland makes for one of the most absorbing and entertaining Irish films for a long time. — Katy Hayes, Sunday Times Culture

Pandora ‘Panti’ Bliss is many things: part glamorous aunt, part Jessica Rabbit; she’s a wittily incisive performer with charisma to burn who is regarded as one of the best drag queens in the world. Created by Rory O’Neill, Panti is also an accidental activist and in her own words ‘a court jester, whose role is to say the unsayable’. Over the last few years Rory has become a figurehead for LGBT rights in Ireland and his fight for equality and against homophobia has become recognised across the world.

This is a documentary film that follows Rory’s journey from the small Mayo town of Ballinrobe to striding the world stage. The film takes us behind the scenes with his alter ego Panti in the year she became the symbol of Ireland’s march towards marriage equality.
