Liberty Kids
 
A collective portrait of the children of 4th class, St. Audoen's Primary School, Dublin
 
16mm   5.5 minutes   sound   colour  2006
 

 
This film is the result of a Super-8mm workshop. The children chose the images and sounds; the film-maker subsequently edited the footage and completed the film. The Liberties is a low-income area of Dublin’s inner city; St. Audoen’s is a public school with very meager resources – but one very energetic teacher who hosted the workshop, which took place during her regular classroom hours.
