Galway-based filmmaker and media strategist Pam Finn has been appointed to the Advisory Board of the City of Angels Film Festival in Los Angeles. The international festival, which celebrates bold independent storytelling, counts Joanna Lumley among its distinguished patrons.
Pam joins a board of industry leaders including editor Elísabet Ronaldsdóttir (John Wick, Atomic Blonde ), director Tom Holland (Fright Night, Child’s Play ), and actress-producer Lisa Crosato. Her appointment signals the festival’s continued commitment to championing diverse global voices in film.
Finn is the director of the award-winning short documentary JFK: The Three Miles, which tells the story of President John F.

“I’m honoured to be joining the Advisory Board of the City of Angels Film Festival,” said Finn. “It’s a privilege to represent Galway’s creative voice on an international stage—especially through a project like JFK: The Three Miles, which is so deeply rooted in local memory and identity.”
