Untitled Composition #1

Synopsis

Untitled Composition #1 is a poetic and surreal study of identity, human relations and self analytical on the very subject of cinema and theatre itself as an artform. This is an experiment in minimalism rather than an attempt to entertain.

Two members of a disilllusioned generation, a man and a woman, get together one dark November night to discuss life, love, sex, politics and almost everything in between.

At first she is the more talkative of the pair. Using his silence and reluctance to reveal anything about himself, he gradually manipulates her into taking part of his darker agenda.

As they slowly start revealing their true identity to each other and decide to play Russian roulette, they begin a journey that will change their lives forever.

Although Judith performs again, her freedom and artistic expression prove fragile.

Every Moon Is Atrocious Every Moon Is Atrocious

Director: Yvonne McDevitt

Year: 2026

Structured as a psychogeographic voyage, the film explores place, memory, and sensation through the inner life of a poet whose sense of self gradually dissolves into cinematic reflection. Departing from conventional documentary forms, EVERY MOON IS ATROCIOUS invites audiences into a layered sensory environment where image, sound, and language operate associatively. At its core lies the poetry of the late Niall McDevitt (1967-2022), whose work forms the conceptual and emotional spine of the film, shaping a trance-like rhythm that mirrors the protagonist’s journey towards death and the unknown. Yvonne McDevitt’s filmmaking resists separating form from feeling. Dreamlike visuals, intense durational shots, and richly layered sound design prioritise emotional resonance over linear narrative. Fragmented imagery and superimpositions draw viewers into a meditative mode, presenting the film as a cinematic drift that charts inner terrains as much as physical ones. Movement through cities and coastlines becomes inseparable from movement through memory, grief, and desire. Official Selection Dublin International Film Festival 2026 - World premiere
