Murdair Mhám Trasna has been shortlisted for International online festival, Amsterdam Lift-Off Film Festival Online 2018. This is a one week festival where you can watch online 13 films and among them is Murdair Mhám Trasna. Murdair Mhám Trasna, a feature length film commissioned by TG4 and co-funded by the BAI, tells the story of the miscarriage of justice which ensued, due to perjury and bribery, after the brutal murder of five members of the same family in Mám Trasna in the West of Ireland in 1882, which eventually contributed to the fall of a British government. A posthumous pardon was granted earlier this year by President Michael D Higgins on the advice of Government to Myles Joyce [Maolra Seoighe] who was wrongly convicted on perjured evidence and the word of informers as a participant in the murders. Descendants of Myles Joyce are travelling from the USA for the occasion. Speaking of the festival producer Ciarán Ó Cofaigh said; “We are very proud to have Murdair Mhám Trasna (The Mám Trasna Murders) shortlisted at the innovative 'Lift-Off Film festival'. Although the events of our film happened in 1882 in a remote village in the West of Ireland, it grew as a story with national and international reverberations and lead to the fall of the then British Government. Following our award at the Celtic Media Festival and the international coverage we had received on broadcast, we are delighted to see the growth of interest in our film as it again becomes an international story.” The festival starts today, October 1st and ends on Sunday 7th October. All 13 films selected for this festival are live on vimeo for one week, and can be watched from anywhere in the world. Help take us to the next level by voting for your favourite and second favourite film before the end of the week! The top voted films will be promoted to the final round on our own Lift-Off Community Platform, where members will go further in-depth and score the films based on multiple aspects. The short and feature film with the highest overall scores will both win an official selection for an upcoming Lift-Off Film Festival.

Tá Murdair Mhám Trasna ar ghearr liosta don Fhéile Scannán ‘Amsterdam Lift-Off Festival Online 2018’. Is féile ar líne atá anseo, inár féidir le lucht féachana ar fud an domhain féachaint ar 13 scannáin idirnáisiúnta agus vóta a chaitheamh ar an dá scannán is fearr leo. Scéal é Murdair Mhám Trasna, fadscannán arna choimisiúnú ag TG4 agus arna chomh-mhaoiniú ag an BAI, faoi dhúnmharú cúigear den teaghlach céanna i Mám Trasna in Iarthar na hÉireann in 1882 agus an t-iomrall ceartais a lean de bharr fianaise bhréige agus breabaireachta, agus faoin mbaint a bhí ag an gcás le titim rialtas na Breataine ina dhiaidh sin. Níos luaithe i mbliana ar chomhairle an Rialtais thug Uachtarán na hÉireann Micheál D. Ó hUiginn pardún iarbháis do Mhaolra Seoighe a crochadh san éagóir nuair a ciontaíodh é ar fhianaise bhréagach agus ar fhaisnéise ó bhrathadóirí a dúirt go raibh lámh aige sna dúnmharuithe. Beidh cuid de shliocht Mhaolra Seoighe ag teacht as Meiriceá le bheith i láthair ag an ócáid. Deir léiritheoir an scannáin, Ciarán Ó Cofaigh, “Táimid thar a bheith sásta Murdair Mhám Trasna a fheiceáil ar ghearr liosta Féile Scannán ‘Lift-Off Film Festival’. Cé gur tharla an eachtra seo i mbaile beag in Iarthar na hÉireann in 1882, tá fréamhacha láidre náisiúnta agus idirnáisiúnta ag baint leis freisin, ina raibh baint ag an gcás le titim rialtas na Breataine ina dhiaidh dá bharr. Tar éis dúinn gradam Torc Idirnáisiúnta ag Féile na Meán Ceilteach a bhuachan agus clúdach idirnáisiúnta a bhaint amach sna meáin tar éis an chéad chraoladh, tá lúcháir orainn léiriú spéise idirnáisiúnta sa scannán a fheiceáil arís ag an bhféile nuálach seo.” Tosaíonn an féile inniu, Dé Luain agus leanann sé ar aghaidh go dtí an 7ú Deireadh Fómhair. Tá Murdair Mhám Trasna ina measc 12 fad-scannán eile ar an nasc seo ar vimeo. Caith do vóta roimh deireadh na seachtaine agus cabhair linn dul chun cinn go dtí an babhta deiridh. Cuirfear na scannáin leis an líon is mó vótaí chun cinn go dtí an babhta deiridh ar ardán ‘Lift-Off’ áit a mbeidh na moltóirí ag tabhairt marcanna do na scannáin is fearr. Beidh an gearr-scannán agus fad-scannán leis na marcanna is airde léirithe ag an gcéad Fhéile Scannán Lift-Off Film Festival eile.
