A meditation on the role music plays in building community, Out of Place explores the tensions that emerge when musicians struggle to carve out a space for themselves in their city. Featuring performances from Denise Chaila, God Knows, Hey Rusty, His Father’s Voice, MuRli, and Post Punk Podge & the Technohippies, the film is an intimate portrayal of a local music scene, capturing the incredible diversity of cultural activity happening in Limerick City.

Director Graham Patterson said, “I’m so excited to be sharing Out of Place alongside other amazing Irish films. Limerick has a strong culture of music and community, and I’m proud for it to be showcased to an international audience.”

Composed of musicians, designers, photographers, and other creative practitioners, Féile na Gréine began as a yearly music festival and continues to build a national reputation for championing Ireland’s emerging and experimental musical talent while holding up Limerick City as a significant destination within Ireland’s cultural landscape. The organisation’s operations are guided by strong-held beliefs in DIY culture, grassroots connections and inclusivity within the arts. As Féile Na Gréine has grown, so has its creative output, which now includes filmmaking and publications, all of which embody a fierce DIY approach.

Out of Place will be available to watch as part of the festival’s online programme, from 16-30 November. Tickets are available from the Irish Film Festival London’s website HERE
