Brigid Mulligan from Co Longford will screen her latest film titled 'Freebirds' in Clones later this evening.
In conjunction with the annual 'Gone But Not Forgotten' Bikers Memorial Mass which will also take place in Clones later this evening, a special public screening of 'Freebirds' will be held at the Court House Cinema in Clones.
The first public screening will take place at 5:45pm with the second following at 6:45pm.
Speaking to Northern Sound, Brigid Mulligan, said ‘Freebirds’ weaves together the stirring true stories of a group of friends from Co Longford who happen to love motorcycles.
In 1997, they set-up Freebird’s Motorcycle Club (M.C.C.). Since then, three young members have died on the road. Through the sharing of deeply personal experiences by Freebird’s M.C.C. members recalling how they finally came to terms with these fatal accidents, this documentary film explores the unseen side of bikers in an Irish rural community and what being a biker means to each of them.
This includes Brigid Mulligan’s brother, Sean Mulligan, who died in 2002 aged 21.
