Continued Success for ‘One Hundred Mornings’ with cinema release in US
Conor Horgan’s debut feature film One Hundred Mornings has continued in its international success with the announcement that it is the recipient of the WorkBook Project Discovery and Distributor Award in the U.S.
The WBP Award was selected out of over 100 submissions and facilitates a week long theatrical release of the film in L.A opening in the Downtown Independent Theater from 16th September as well as full social media, street team and media support.
One Hundred Mornings is set in a world upended by a complete breakdown of society, where two couples hide out in a lakeside cabin hoping to survive the crisis. As resources begin to run low and external threats increase, an unspoken animosity fills the air and everything begins to disintegrate. Finally, each of them faces a critical decision they never thought they’d have to make.
The gripping film has garnered critical acclaim since its world premiere at the renowned Slamdance Film Festival in Utah in January where it received a Special Mention from the Grand Jury. It screened on home soil at the Galway Film Fleadh and the Dublin Jameson International Film Festival while Suzie Lavelle picked up an IFTA for her work as D.o.P. It has also been selected for numerous festivals across the globe with screenings at the Seattle True Independent Film Festival, the Indy Film Festival, Indianapolis and the Portland Maine International Film Festival in the U.S, and the Revelations Film Festival in Perth and the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. Upcoming scheduled screenings include the Rhode Island Film Festival and the San Francisco Irish Film Festival in the US.
Produced by Katie Holly from Blinder Films, who was selected as one of 23 European ‘Producers On The Move’ at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year, it was funded through the Catalyst Project, an initiative of Filmbase, the Irish Film Board, FAS Screen Training Ireland, the BCI/BAI, TV3 and the Arts Council.
Filmed over twenty days in County Wicklow, the film showcases the acting talents of Ciaran McMenamin (The Last Confession of Alexander Pearce), Alex Reid (The Descent) Rory Keenan (Intermission), and Kelly Campbell (Bachelors Walk).
One Hundred Mornings will begin its U.S cinema release in the Downtown Independent Theater in Los Angeles from 16th September.
