Misleór, which starts on Friday the 22nd of October, is a truly special event, and the only festival in Ireland that celebrates and connects nomadic cultures from around the world.
The festival programme includes a mix of in-person and online events, showcasing music, art, film, theatre and storytelling from these minority communities.
Misleór will open on Friday at 7.30pm in the Pálás Cinema, with a special programme of short films. Included is the world premiere of Dreamer, directed by David McDonagh from Tuam, which was produced through the inaugural Misleór Film Bursary.
