ANYA Wins Best Overall Short and Best Sound at Limerick Film Festival!





We're delighted to announce that our short film ANYA won the Best Overall Short Film and Best Sound at the Limerick Film Festival!

“Limerick Film Festival has grown from strength to strength over the years and this year’s fest was just fantastic, great guests, lovely film makers and Simon and the team did an amazing job. So thanks to all and congratulations to the other winners!

Darren Hendley did an amazing job on the music and sound so delighted to be able to pass the sound award on to him. As for winning Best Overall, given the high standard of all the other nominees it was genuinely the last thing I was expecting, so it came as a lovely surprise,” Damien O'Connor, ANYA Writer/Director
