Screen Ireland, formerly the Irish Film Board, has announced the recipients of the latest funding awards made available for the development, production and distribution of film, documentary and television projects. The agency has earmarked €2,373,090 for the third quarter of the year, with 52 projects sharing development funding of €815,770, 12 sharing production funding of €1,217,500 and 11 sharing distribution funding of €339,820.

For this quarter, the documentary production fund will account for €507,500 and will support five projects. The largest grant (€125,000, including a €25,000 female funding incentive) was given to Underground Films and Kim Bartley’s Pure Grit, an observational documentary about bareback racing, love and life set in the Wind River reservation in Wyoming. Other beneficiaries of the grant were Johnny Gogan’s creative doc Prisoners of the Moon (€100,000, produced by Bandit Films), revolving around controversial Nazi scientist Arthur Rudolph, who played a decisive role in the 1969 moon landing; Gary Lennon and Ollie Aslin’s Castro’s Spies [+lire aussi :
