We are thrilled to share that our upcoming animated short film 'SYNCYTIUM' has been selected by Screen Ireland/Fís Éireann for this years Frameworks scheme!

Emma Scott, Head of Audiences at Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland, said:

“Screen Ireland is delighted to announce and congratulate the filmmaking teams selected for this year’s Frameworks scheme. Now in its 30th year, Frameworks continues to champion the visual storytelling and creative excellence Irish animation is so renowned for.”

Directed by Josh O'Caoimh & Mikai Geronimo, and produced by Claire Lennon, 'SYNCYTIUM' follows a mortal who encounters a celestial being in the forest, whose magical flute controls the flow of time.

We are extremely grateful to Screen Ireland/Fís Éireann and RTÉ for supporting this project - and are excited to bring the film to life.
