Dublin Film Festival Kicks Off Today
Unfortunately the impressive set up cannot be utilised in this year's Dublin International Film Festival, which get's underway today.
Thousands of tickets have been sold for this year's virtual event including features, documentaries, shorts and special events.
Festival Director Grainne Humphreys says there are some benefits of moving the event online.
She says attendees can see "almost every film" of the festival, which would be impossible if the event was happening in person.
Ahead of their kickoff tonight, wishing our good friends @DublinFilmFest the very best for this year's edition.
We're looking forward to There Is No Evil and Limbo!
