In celebration of Queensland Irish Association’s sponsorship of the Irish Film Festival Australia 2024, Members and friends are invited to join them on Saturday, 16th November at 6.15pm at Beyond The Pale, Coorparoo Square, following Irish movie Verdigris, which starts at Dendy Cinemas Coorparoo at 4.10pm.

Verdigris is a powerful story about Marian and Jewel, two very different women who form an unlikely bond. Shabby and unfulfilled, middle-aged middle-class Marian takes a job as a census enumerator and befriends local teenager Jewel as she comes to admire the girl’s independence and strength.

The film won Best Independent Film at the 2023 Galway Film Fleadh and Best Feature Film at the 2023 Irish Film Festival London.

All are welcome, you don’t have to attend the film to come along and join the Queensland Irish Association (QIA) for drinks.

Beyond The Pale offers craft beers, artisan coffee, boutique wines and tapas dining.
