🎬 As the weather begins to change, there's no better excuse to sit back, relax and enjoy a fantastic Cinema Night at VISUAL Carlow

On Thursday 3rd September at 7.30pm watch:

Blue Heron (2025) - Vancouver Island in the 1990s. Eight-year-old Sasha struggles to make sense of her older brother’s escalating behaviour. A mystery she revisits as an adult through a deeply personal filmmaking project.

This extraordinary film from Canadian filmmaker Sophy Romvari is a quietly devastating reckoning with a family’s traumatic past. Using several inventive structural and narrative devices, Blue Heron emerges as one of the most accomplished and moving feature debuts of recent times.

2025 | 91 mins | Canada, Hungary | 12A

English and Hungarian language with English subtitles

Tickets only €7, can be purchased online at www.visualcarlow.ie, in person or over the phone at Box Office.
