2016 was a bumper year for Irish films at the cinema, featuring Oscar contenders and independent gems alike. Now it’s your opportunity to vote for what was your favourite of the year’s Irish film releases.
From road trips (My Name is Emily) to bike trips (The Young Offenders), from fishing rights (Atlantic) to holy rights (Strange Occurrences), from twisted games (Traders) to ill-conceived heists (The Flag), the stories being told in Irish films this year ran the full gamut of human experience.
