To celebrate the vital role which Dublin has played on screen, the festival is delighted to
present 6 programmes of films and non-fiction material shot on the streets of Dublin since
1897. Many Dubliners will remember the shooting of such classic Dublin films as Quackser
Fortune Has A Cousin in the Bronx and The First Great Train Robbery, while our archive
presentations will chart the changes in Dublin’s cinematic landscape.

These outdoor screenings will be an opportunity for JDIFF to go out on the streets
of Dublin and to bring a little bit of Irish cinema history to the citizens of our capital city.
