Trish McAdam

Shot over an eight-year period (2007-2015), this documentary film aims to present women’s struggle in the private and public spheres, both in China and Hong Kong. It offers a view into the lives of female factory workers, artists, rights activists, and intellectuals – whom deal with political violence, sexual harassment, online bullying, long-term separation from family, arbitrary treatment by transnational factory management, and/or poverty in their home villages.

Based on the epic poem, iGirl, by Irish playwright Marina Carr. A writer throws a cold eye, with Beckettian, humour and honesty, on her life and work, and that of homo sapiens' as a species, and in light of our likely future extinction.

McAdam’s debut, a comical short, about Jack (Jack Lynch, who co-wrote the film) and the catastrophic effects of a night’s drinking. This marked McAdam’s first film collaboration with actors Donal O’Kelly and Pom Boyd.

A wry story of female friendship: Jean and Kate, two "nearing-thirty" street performers, find the ups and downs of life and love amid the pubs and music scene of modern day Dublin.
