Film Screening: The Pipe (in Portumna, Galway)
In a remote corner of the West of Ireland sits Broadhaven Bay. It is the perfect picture postcard, where the high cliffs of Erris Head and the Stags of Broadhaven stand sentry at the mouth of the bay against the mighty Atlantic, as if protecting the delicate golden sands of Glengad beach and the tiny village of Rossport, which nestles behind the dunes. However, this peaceful tranquility belies the turmoil that lies beneath, and the unique nature of the coastline which has sustained generations of farmers and fishermen, has also delivered to Shell Oil the perfect landfall for the Corrib Gas Pipeline.
The Pipe is showing in Portumna, Galway on Saturday 11th (at 20:00) December and Sunday 12th December (at 17:00) in the Cinemobile in the town square.
The Sunday showing will also have a questions and answers session with Richard O'Donnell, facilitated by Mark Conroy.
