Since Marketa Dowling, Programme Manager of the Belltable, came on board in April 2016 cultural cinema has been screened weekly and has proved a great success with cinema goers. This new partnership is hugely significant as it benefits from the expertise, passion and access that the IFI has to offer.  Marketa noted “We are really excited about our partnership with the Irish Film Institute. Our audiences will benefit hugely from IFI’s expertise and experience of programming top quality arthouse cinema.
