We are giving away fifteen pairs of tickets to attend the premiere screening of Kathleen Is Here at Light House Cinema, Smithfield at 7pm on Thursday, October 3rd, followed by a Q&A and a drinks reception.
Following her appearance in Sharon Horgan’s acclaimed Bad Sisters, Eva Birthistle’s celebrated directorial film debut KATHLEEN IS HERE, is coming to Irish cinemas on 18 October 2024.
Kathleen (Hazel Doupe) is 18 and fresh out of foster care. She returns to her hometown to take ownership of her deceased mother’s house. She gets a job and even a friend; but the emptiness of Kathleen’s life cannot be filled by social media and reality shows. Alone and desperate for a mother figure, she sets out on a destructive path to find one.
Starring Hazel Doupe, Clare Dunne, Peter Coonan, Aaron Monaghan and Liadán Dunlea, KATHLEEN IS HERE is a story about not fitting in and seeking meaning in life, when it feels like perhaps there is none.
Speaking about the upcoming release, Director Eva Birthistle, said “Kathleen is Here has been a labour of love for the last 10 years. All I wanted was for an audience to be able to watch it on a big screen so I’m beyond thrilled it will have its cinematic release in October.”
KATHLEEN IS HERE is written and directed by Eva Birthistle and produced by Claire McCaughley for Treasure Entertainment with backing from Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland. The film officially opens in Irish cinemas on October 18th.
