Irish Film & Television UK are proud to host this special screening of That They May Face the Rising Sun + a Q&A with director Pat Collins and producer Brendan Byrne as part of its St Brigid’s & St Patrick’s Day Programme. After years away in London, Joe and Kate are a creative couple who have found contentment in rural Ireland where Joe grew up. Their home provides a precious haven for characters from the local community who are welcomed in for gossip, advice or a cup of tea. Set in the 1980s, Collins' latest film is a striking adaptation of John McGahern’s celebrated final novel, a rare and moving meditation on casual compassion and kindness as a way of life.
