We ♥ New Volta Film Club
New Volta Film Club is a monthly exhibition of new short film and animation in the heart of Dublin City which began in September 2009. Screenings take place on the first Tuesday of every month in Bewley’s Cafe Theatre on Grafton Street. The aim of the night is to provide filmmakers and animators with a place to meet, interact, and find an audience to show new work. We invite anybody who’d like to screen their short film/animation/music video/documentary/experimental piece/visual art to get in touch and get their work seen.
