We Are Film was a festival started by Dáire Carson after graduating from his film course into a pandemic world with no opportunities to make or showcase his work. He aimed to create a space where students from Northern Ireland could come together to watch and celebrate each other's work. Dáire was the sole creator and director of the festival utilising skills and a lack of resources to take the festival to fruition.
“As a recent film graduate, I know how hard it can be to get your stuff shown, especially in the festival circuit when you’re up against filmmakers with access to money and resources. I know the majority of the time I had passion, the sun in the sky and a cheap DSLR, but that's all you need to create amazing work!” Dáire Carson
