Denis Buckley (www.denisbuckley.com) performing in Edinburgh. Denis Buckley and Ciarán Walsh have been working together for a number of years but this was the first project that we pitched together. It was written by Denis and its title is taken a the traditional Irish song entitled 'Táimse Im' Chodladh.' It deals with emigration and the experience of economic exile, a recurring theme in Denis' work. Denis constructed the piece around the premise that, although social media may have made the world a much smaller place, it hasn't lessened the distance of exile. Pre-production has started. Denis Buckley will direct, Ciarán Walsh will produce and the film will be screened at Dingle International Film Festival in 2014.
