Whenever I am obliged to lie with my eyes closed I see a cinematograph going on and on and it brings back to my memory things I had almost forgotten.
– James Joyce
We are delighted to announce that the Bloomsday Film Festival is now open for film submissions for the Bloomsday Festival 2026 (https://www.bloomsdayfestival.ie/?mc_cid=ebc4fd757f&mc_eid=UNIQID) !
Ireland’s most literary film festival was set up as a celebration of cinema, literature, and artistic innovation, inspired by the long reaching arm of Ireland’s father of modernism, James Joyce. The festival is run in partnership with the Bloomsday Festival and the James Joyce Centre at the James Joyce Centre, Belvedere Townhouse and the Irish Film Institute.
The festival welcomes short and feature films on a Joycean theme in addition to films inspired by Dublin, Literature, Experimental and Poetry Films.
The Bloomsday Film Festival is passionate about innovation within the medium of film. They aim to encourage filmmakers and artists who do things their own way making films that seek to push the craft forward, as Joyce did so greatly within his own craft of literature.
