Beaufort Film Night returns with screening of Cinema Paradiso
Beaufort Film Night will return on Friday, June 12, with a screening of the Italian classic Cinema Paradiso at Kilgobnet National School.
Directed by Giuseppe Tornatore, the film follows Salvatore, a successful film director who returns home to Sicily for the funeral of his childhood friend and mentor, Alfredo, the local cinema projectionist.
The movie won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, five BAFTA Awards, and the Grand Prize of the Jury at the Cannes Film Festival. It features a soundtrack by composer Ennio Morricone.
The screening will begin at 8:30pm at Kilgobnet National School (Eircode V93 DW26). Admission is €8, with cash-only entry as there are no card payment facilities. Proceeds will cover the motion picture licence fee. The film is rated PG and will screen in Italian with English subtitles.
Beaufort Film Night is a non-profit community organisation run by local film enthusiasts. The group aims to screen cultural English and international language films that do not typically receive a general release in Kerry.
The initiative is supported by the Kerry County Council Arts Office and works in conjunction with Access Cinema.
Organisers extended their thanks to Kilgobnet National School for providing the venue. More details can be found on the Beaufort Film Night Facebook page.
