Featuring a stellar Irish and international cast including Tom Vaughan-Lawlor and Ellen Page, David Freyne’s The Cured is produced by Rory Dungan and Rachael O’Kane at Tilted Pictures. For six years, a virus has devastated Europe, transforming people into zombie-like monsters. All is lost until a cure is found. The cure, which has a 75% success rate, restores the infected to full physical health, although the cured remember everything they did while infected. Three years into this great hope, the third wave of cured are ready for release in Ireland.

Produced by John Keville and Conor Barry of Savage Productions alongside Benoit Roland of Wrong Men, Rebecca Daly’s Good Favour follows a young man named Tom who walks out of an immense forest into the lives of a strictly devout Christian community carving out a remote existence in central Europe. As Tom is initiated into their farming life and scriptural regime, he discovers the community is suffering a crisis of faith following a devastating loss.
Brian O’Malley’s The Lodgers is a gothic ghost story set in the 1920s about orphaned twins Edward (Bill Milner) and Rachel (Charlotte Vega) who share a crumbling manor in 1920s rural Ireland – but they are not alone. They share the house with unseen entities who control them with three absolute rules. As separate fates draw them apart, the twins must face the terrible truth about their family’s ghostly tormentors. The film also features Irish talent such as Moe Dunford, Deirdre O’Kane, Roisin Murphy. The Lodgers was primarily shot in Loftus Hall in County Wexford, which is widely known as being the most haunted house in Ireland. The film is produced by Ruth Treacy and Julianne Forde of Tailored Films.
It’s a huge honour to have our gothic ghost story The Lodgers selected for the highly competitive and prestigious Toronto International Film Festival. It was always our dream to have our film premiere at an A-list international festival and we’re really excited to see how audiences and distributors respond to it. Ruth Treacy, Producer – Tailored Films
