    Ireland always seems to do well internationally with short films.

    Fairplay on the nomination and best of luck, hopefully it wins overall.

    Ireland is famous for its short story writers. It is now famous for its short films

    Maybe we are too lazy to make a full length film

    You can’t upload your film online or else it get’s disqualified from Oscar consideration. It will probably go up sometime next year
