21 Oct 2014 : Seán Brosnan
Irish film ‘Patrick’s Day’ has won three awards at the 2014 Woodstock Film Festival, including Best Feature Narrative.

The film, written and directed by Terry McMahon, also won for Best Cinematography for Michael Lavelle and Best Editing of a Feature Narrative for Emer Reynolds.

’Patrick’s Day’ has also picked up awards this month at the Hell’s Half Mile Film and Music Festival in Michigan in the categories of Best Actor, which was awarded to Moe Dunford, as well as Best Screenplay which went to McMahon.

It was the joint winner of the Best Irish Feature award at this year’s Galway Film Fleadh and was screened in Los Angeles by the Directors Guild of America on October 10th after winning the coveted Screen Directors Guild ‘Finders Series’ Award which is only presented to one Irish film a year.

‘Patrick’s Day’ is McMahon’s second feature film as director following ‘Charlie Casanova’. The film stars Moe Dunford as Patrick, a mentally ill young man who falls in love with a depressed flight attended (Catherine Walker) much to the disapproval of his mother (Kerry Fox).

The Woodstock Film Festival was launched in 2000 and screens high-quality independent films. Attendees at this year’s event included Darren Aronofsky, Natalie Portman, Jennifer Connolly, Seann William Scott and Courtney Cox.

As IFTN previously reported, ‘Patrick’s Day’ will be distributed in Ireland by Wildcard Distribution and will be released in early 2015.
