We are so excited to return All Of Us Strangers to the big screen at the Irish Film Institute and to welcome Andrew Haigh himself in person, who will be in conversation following the screening with his friend and artistic collaborator, the Russell Tovey.
The conversation will be followed by an audience question and answer session where we encourage fans and budding filmmakers to bring along your curiosity and make the most of this masterclass opportunity to hear from one of our finest voices in film.
In addition, we are so happy to announce that Andrew will be the recipient of this year’s GAZE Vanguard Award in recognition of his ground-breaking work in queer storytelling in film and television, and his contribution to the field at large.
There will be a post-screening in conversation with Andrew Haigh and Russell Tovey.'
