Gráinne Humphreys embarking on her second year as festival director was confident that the event which runs from February 12th until February 22nd would (as cinema is said to do) resist recession and continue to increase its attendance figures. “The festival’s primary remit is to screen the best of cinema from across the world from the last year” she said. “It is my greatest hope that this year’s programme will transfix audiences during the 11 days of our festival and that maybe you will find your new favourite film.
