This year's St. Patrick's Day will be special for two reasons. The first reason is Samuel Beckett. The second - Buster Keaton.

We invite you to the screening of the Film directed by Beckett and Alan Schneider (1965). A twenty-minute, almost totally silent film (no dialogue or music, one 'shhh!') in which Buster Keaton attempts to evade observation by an all-seeing eye. But, as the film is based around Bishop Berkeley's principle 'esse est percipi' (to be is to be perceived), Keaton's very existence conspires against his efforts.

This was Samuel Beckett's only venture into the medium of cinema. According to the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze, it is "the greatest Irish film."

The event will kick off with a screening of short silent films that connect to Ireland, featuring works from both silent film era and modern filmmakers.

Screening with live piano accompaniment by Graham Keane.
