Our biggest and most ambitious shoot at the time ‘The Break’ was a huge task for a small team. The script dealt with complex issues but was warmly received and attracted a talented and established cast.

A four-day shoot, mostly on a beach, with a large cast and crew created its own issues but the shoot went smoothly. The end result opened Cork Film Festival, played around the world and was screened on RTÉ Television and Aer Lingus flights.
