A FILM screening in Ennistymon will double up as a fundraising event for the victims of the ongoing war in Gaza.
Doors open at 7:30pm this Friday (December 15th) at the Courthouse in Ennistymon for the film screening of ‘GAZA’. The documentary which was first released in 2019 will begin at 8pm, it is directed and produced by two Irish men Andrew McConnell and Garry Keane.
An insight into the resilience of the people of Gaza is highlighted in the film which shows how they have lived with hope against the rubble of perennial conflict. A young cellist, a young rapper, a theatre director, a fisherman and his son, a taxi driver and an ambulance driver all share their stories, daily experiences and their hopes for the future.

Admission will be free, donations are welcome on the night which will go directly to Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) and a local Palestinian charity.
