Listen
LISTEN is the everyday story of a man’s journey to work. This day is no different that any other day in modern Ireland. John Charles is simply going through the motions of completing a very simple task, getting to work. The story is humorous and told at a pace that is fast in order to convey the urgency of modern life.

The Day Trippers (Screenplay)
There’s nothing nicer than a sedate Sunday drive in the countryside, now that you have reached your golden years. Tom and Mary are a retired couple enjoying the latter days of their lives. We join them as they enjoy a picnic in the country.

This platform is intended to open up opportunities for those working in film and new media in any capacity. Belltable is eager to hear from the filmmakers / producers / actors / new media students & educators etc. in the region with suggestions and input. This is YOUR forum.
