I Saw the TV Glow at Triskel Arts Centre, Cork, from 1-4 Sept. Lonely teenager Owen bonds with a classmate by watching an odd TV show with her. But his grip on reality begins to blur. Preceded by the short film Waltz.
Teenager Owen is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show - a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen’s view of reality begins to crack.
+Short Film: WALTZ (3 mins, directed by Tara Maria Brady)
Girl stands alone in a dark place. She is approached by one suitor, then another, and yet another in a discombobulating feminist nightmare. This short film will support I SAW THE TV GLOW.
