Tuar Ard Arts Centre Hosts CineMobile and 'His And Her' Film, 6/24

CineMobile returns to Tuar Ard (Car-Park) Moate on Thursday, June 24th with two screenings of "His And Her' film at 6pm and 8pm.

Wardrop's film is made up of vignettes featuring 90 women (ages one to 90) from the Midlands of Ireland who each represent an age. Wardrop asks each woman about their relationships with the men in their lives. Wardrop frames his movie in a way that each vignette flows into the next. He uses the effective technique of having most of his subjects enter and exit through stairs. The film opens with a toddler opening a safety gate and climbing the stairs with quite determination. Each subsequent shot of older girls calls back to that first mischievous toddler and suggests the experiences each of these women have had since they too were crawling carelessly past gates designed to project their fragility. While the film only contains one brief shot of a man, the men in these women's lives comes through in their stories. Like the women Wardrop features, "His and Hers" is funny, moving and always affecting. Further details on www.hisandhers.ie
