Dordán at CineSalon 6



At the sixth CineSalon screening at The Guesthouse, Cork on Thursday January 23rd the first public screening of Dordán took place.


Dordán is a piece by Jennifer Walshe, a performance by Quiet Music Ensemble, a new film by Maximilian Le Cain released by Diatribe Records. Dordán tells the stories of Pádraig MacGiolla Mhuire and Caoimhín Breathnach through the eyes of Breathnach’s great-niece, composer Jennifer Walshe. The two men are pioneers in the development of the Irish avant-garde.


The film of Dordán encapsulates the piece in an independent work created by Maximilian Le Cain. It is intended to be both an artwork in itself and a container for a way of presenting Walshe’s work. Both the original work and the film Dordán were commissioned by Quiet Music Ensemble with funds from the Arts Council of Ireland.
