PJ HARVEY - A Dog Called Money (2019 : 90mins)

The Documentary Room(originally The Rialto Cinema Club) is the only cinema night in Ireland dedicated to the documentary film genre. It was set up in early 2020 by Jenny Keogh and John McMahon. The premise of the fort-nightly cinema night is to show feature length documentary films focusing on music, art and culture, with a lean towards Irish directors and a healthy sprinkling of International directors.Jenny is a photographer, filmmaker and an avid film festival goer, with a particular passion for the documentary genre. She programs the films and hosts the cinema night – she gives an introduction offering some information about the film and the director and there is room afterwards for audience members to ask questions or chat about the film. With pizza and drinks available at the venue, it makes for a unique cinema experience in the cozy event room. Jenny sees it as an opportunity to share with audiences a dynamic range of documentaries that often only get shown at film festivals or a short run in mainstream cinemas.Jenny also runs her own video production business calledStand Out Films, creating content for Artists, Educators and Creative `Businesses.John is the events manager atThe CircularRialto, and has be a great supporter of the cinema night from the start, by offering it a regular slot throughout the Autumn and  Winter months.U﻿PCOMING SCREENINGS JAN/FEB 20231﻿7th Jan  8.30pm - DARK HORSE ON THE WIND3﻿1st Jan 8.30pm - MAISIE14th Feb 8.30pm - MARIANNE & LEONARD : Words of LovePAST SCREENINGSPOLY STYRENE : I AM CLICHEBREAKING OUTAK KLINT : BEYONDYOU DON'T NOMIP﻿HOTO CITYGRACE JONES : B﻿LOODLIGHT AND BAMITHE LOST LEONARDOF﻿RIDA VIVA LA VIDACROCK OF GOLD : A FEW ROUNDS WITH SHANE MCGOWAN (Dir.

Award-winning Irish photographer Seamus Murphy has made a film that investigates the creative process behind his project with PJ Harvey. While tracing the sources of songs and detailing the journey of their birth, he brings to life the people and places at their very heart. As imaginative as the creative process it documents, A DOG CALLED MONEY is a uniquely intimate journey through the inspiration, writing and recording of a PJ Harvey record.Writer and musician PJ Harvey and photographer Seamus Murphy, hatched a collaboration. Seeking first-hand experience of the countries she wanted to write about, Harvey accompanied Murphy on some of his worldwide reporting trips, joining him in Afghanistan, Kosovo, and Washington DC. Harvey collected words, Murphy collected images.Back home, the words become poems, songs, then an album, which is recorded in an unprecedented art experiment in Somerset House, London. In a specially constructed room behind one-way glass, the public - all cameras surrendered - are invited to watch the 5-week process as a live sound-sculpture. Murphy exclusively documents the experiment with the same forensic vision and private access as their travels. PJ Harvey fans and film lovers alike will be captivated by this thought-provoking documentary—both an intimate journey into the creative process, and a kaleidoscopic travelogue in zones of war and social unrest. Dreamlike and elliptical, this is a stunning portrait of an enigmatic musical icon.Seamus Murphy is an Irish photographer and filmmaker who has won seven World Press Photo awards for his work in Afghanistan, Gaza, Lebanon, Sierra Leone, Peru and Ireland. His work from Afghanistan is in the collections of The Getty Museum, Los Angeles and Imperial War Museum, London. He is the author of four books of photography. As a director and cinematographer he has made films for The New Yorker and Channel 4 (UK).
