The House Fell

Official selection Cork Film Festival 2019, Fastnet Film Festival and Kerry Film Festival, Richard Harris International Film Festival 2020 and Achill Film Festival 2022.

Fiona (Liv O’Donoghue) is back in the village she grew up in as a bridesmaid at her sister’s wedding. She’s supposed to be enjoying herself, but there’s a knot in her stomach that won’t let her settle.

Her best friend Elaine (Maria Oxley Boardman) appears to make sure she’s okay but Fiona has already hatched a plan to escape. The two head out across the river to buy some weed. Passing an old dilapidated mansion, Fiona is drawn forward by some feeling she can’t name yet. It’s something unfinished that will have to be driven out of her before she’ll go back.
