Aurora Community Cinema, Rostrevor, are delighted to be showing 'Blue Road - The Edna O'Brien Story'.

The screening takes place on Friday, March 21 at Kilbroney Integrated Primary School.

Sinead O'Shea's documentary on the author Edna O’Brien is a reminder that most writers – most people, in fact – don’t have lives anywhere near as exciting or fulfilling as hers.

The film, which includes diary entries read by Jessie Buckley, shows us that O’Brien was always a witty, generous and good-humoured interviewee over the years.

This film includes an extended interview with the author herself recorded just before she died in 2024.

It promises to be a great evening of cinema in cosy surroundings – everyone is welcome to come along and enjoy the screening.

Doors open at 7pm, which gives more than enough time for a cup of tea and some delicious home-baked cake. The film starts at 7.30pm.
