Baltimore
Imogen Poots grounds Christine Molloy and Joe Lawlor's meditative portrayal of terrorist, disinherited heiress and expectant mother Rose Dugdale.
Director: Christine Molloy and Joe Lawlor
Overview
Irish creative duo Molloy and Lawlor evolve their unique cinematic language with the real-life story of the self-radicalised Provisional IRA volunteer, who leads an art raid for principle not money. Time moves like ripples before and after the raid, with glimpses of contemporary reportage. We’re presented with violence, contradictions, lush cinematography and, ultimately, a portrait of a singular personality.
