MOON TIGER MOVIE Available on EFS VOD


The first part of my new four-part feature Moon Tiger Movie is now available to watch on the Experimental Film Society VOD page. It will be free to stream for the first week after which it will be available for €5.

Moon Tiger didn’t find much to do on the moon so he descended to earth. The first thing he discovered is that he had nothing in common with earth tigers so he decided to see what people were like. But he generally spent his time watching movies and going for long solitary walks. Words could never convey his impressions of being on earth so in 1997 he began trying to make movies. Now, 22 years later, he has assembled his movie fragments on four dirty VHS tapes in order to see what he has become…

Moon Tiger Movie is the culmination of my first two decades of filmmaking. It shapes the short film work I did in this time into a four-part feature. In accruing a wealth of films, sketches and experiments over the decades, I have been gradually working towards this major project in which they reveal themselves as parts of a richer whole. What emerges is the electronic smudge of an inner life, the nocturnal residue of an existence half-dreamed. Broken and unreconciled, Moon Tiger Movie is a testament to the compelling inconclusiveness of life and the fragility of images.
