FILM COMEDY
1945 Chris Kent
Looking Up
Wednesday 06 March
On a summer day in 1945, an Orthodox Jewish
man and his grown son return to a village in
Hungary while the villagers prepare for the
wedding of the town clerk's son. The
townspeople – suspicious, remorseful, fearful,
and cunning – expect the worst and behave
accordingly. The town clerk fears the men may
be heirs of the village's deported Jews and
expects them to demand their illegally acquired
property back.
Shot in lustrous black and white, Director
Ferenc Török paints a complex picture of a
society trying to come to terms with the recent
horrors they’ve experienced, perpetrated, or
just tolerated for personal gain.

Friday 08 March
Cork comedian Chris Kent returns with his
highly anticipated sixth solo show ‘Looking Up’.
Chris has spent the past year balancing comedy
with being a stay at home dad and trying to
grow a beard. He has also removed the word
“mate” from his vocabulary as it takes too
much effort to say in an Irish accent.
T.V. appearances include the RTÉ 2 panel show
‘Next Year’s News’, ‘The Craig Doyle Show’ and
Conor's Dad in the hit series ‘The Young
Offenders’. In the UK, he has appeared on Russell
Howard’s Stand Up Central for Comedy Central.
On radio he has been a regular panelist for the
RTE Radio 1 show ‘The Second Republic’ and a
guest panellist on BBC’s ‘The Blame Game’.
‘Kent is easily the most talented comic
storyteller this reviewer has ever heard’
– The Fringe Review
