His and Hers is a beautifully observed and creative documentary that
combines observation and imagination to illustrate a universal love story.
Shot in the hallways, living rooms and kitchens of the Irish Midlands, the
story moves sequentially from young to old to deliver a unique and
touching insight into sharing life’s journey. The film explores woman’s relationship with man by visiting moments from the lives of 70 female characters from all over the Midlands, from Tullamore, Portlaoise, Mullingar, Longford, Cavan and Athlone to mention but a few.
The film’s Director Ken Wardrop, a Portarlington native, has been described as one of Ireland’s freshest creative talents. His authentic filmmaking voice has led to many original short cinematic works. With a strong emphasis on the aesthetic and a delicate humanity, Ken’s art has garnered much international attention, with screenings at some of the most prestigious festivals including Sundance, Locarno, Cannes and Oberhausen. His films have received over thirty international awards including a European Film Academy Award for his short film Undressing My Mother in 2005. His and Hers is Ken’s debut feature film, and has recently been selected by The Director’s Finder’s Series to be showcased at this year’s Director’s Guild of America Theatre on sunset Boulevard in L.A this August.
His & Hers is produced by Andrew Freedman and funded by The Irish Film
Board, under their micro budget scheme.
Prior to it’s Irish Premier at this year’s Galway Film Fleadh, there will be a special screening for Cast and Press in the Tullamore Omniplex on Bridge St. Tullamore on Thursday 2nd July at 6pm.
