American Astronaut
Directed by Cory McAbee
Samuel Curtis, an astronaut from Earth, receives a valuable gift in exchange for completing one of his missions: a cloning device already in the process of preparing the Real Live Girl. He decides to go to Jupiter with her, where women simply don’t exist, and trade the clone of the Real Live Girl for the Boy Who Actually Saw a Woman’s Breast – a well-known cult figure. He wants to take the Boy to Venus, a planet inhabited exclusively by women, where the protagonist is supposed to get the body of Johnny R, a human stud. The plan seems simple at first, until Samuel meets his nemesis – Professor Heiss, who follows him through the whole solar system. Heiss wants to get Curtis and kill him, but before he accomplishes that, he destroys everyone who has anything to do with Samuel…

We meet John and Noreen, two young lovers from Boyle, Roscommon, at a turning point in their lives together. John wants to move the relationship forward in a certain way, but Noreen is less willing. John wins over in the short-term, but Noreen, feeling manipulated, leaves him. John is left alone in a strange and open ending. |

A
collection of short films including:
Bogged Down, Directed by Barry Grant
The film revolves around ‘Benny’ – an emotionally and psychologically unhinged man. We see him in the middle of nowhere trying to bury a problem that he just can’t seem to get rid of ... but things don’t work out as he had hoped. Bogged Down is an abstract psychological drama – an exploration of the inner workings of the mind of a man on the fringes of society, teetering on the brink of insanity.
Bog Rolled, Directed by Ryan Ralph, 9’42
Bog Rolled is a comical tribute to all those formals, functions and parties that have seen its laughs, scandals and all memorable moments take place in the toilets. The film sees several stories take place involving a variety of characters, each with its own mishaps and conflicts. |

The Centre for Creative Practices aims to develop, sustain, promote and present new arts and creative practices in Dublin and Ireland through the organisation of artistic events and education.
The current climate might seem to be against us. We dare to believe the opposite. We believe that culture is a fundamental value for every society, that the arts are an indispensable system of reference for personal and collective values, an example of diversity and tolerance and a vital tool to neutralise the stagnation. |
