Irish Film Institute
in association with Dublin City Council & Musictown present

Sunday October 4th, 1.30pm
SCREENING: PHILIP LYNOTT: SONGS FOR WHILE I’M AWAY

FOLLOWED BY LIVE INTERVIEW WITH DIRECTOR EMER REYNOLDS & KILLIAN SUNDERMAN

Tickets: https://ifi.ie/films/phil-lynott-songs -for-while-im-away

An exclusive screening of Emer Reynolds’ moving documentary followed by a live interview with the director conducted by podcaster, comedian and Thin Lizzy nut Killian Sunderman.

Telling the story of a black, working-class boy who comes of age in 1960s Dublin, this feature documentary from maestra Emer Reynolds (The Farthest) paints a detailed portrait of one of Ireland’s greatest rock legends. The film explores the man and his music through his own words and through interviews with an array of admirers, friends and family, who speak about the public and private Lynott with warmth, authority and great dollops of humour. Reynolds chooses to focus meticulously on the creation of a powerful and varied body of work rather than dwell on the drink and drug dependency that blighted Lynott’s latter years before his death at 36.

Please can you all keep my kind, passionate and committed friend Tom McCune in your thoughts? He’s in jail- detained by Israeli forces while attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza- he’s on hunger strike, has no access to clean water or his meds, and some of his colleagues have been beaten💔

My dear friend Tom Mc Cune is one of 9 Irish citizens detained by the IDF while attempting to bring humanitarian aid to Gaza. We demand the Irish Government take action; to protect her citizens and help save the beleaguered citizens of Gaza💔 #stopthegenocide @simonharristd @dfat @globalsumudflotilla by @reynoldsemer

Our wonderful friend John Casani has sadly passed away. He was Project Manager for the Voyager spacecraft( and many more) and star of ‘The Farthest’. We were honoured to have experienced his spirit, curiosity, wit, playfulness, energy and dazzling intellect. The World will be a duller place without him❤️🚀❤️ by @reynoldsemer
