<h3>Young filmmakers and actors from Killarney will feature on RT&Eacute; 2 on Wednesday night.</h3>
Local talent was well represented at the Fresh Film Festival in Limerick on March 30.
Director Glen Bowler, in association with Killarney Camera Club, St Brendan&rsquo;s College and West End House School of Arts presented his short movie &lsquo;The Legend of Patrick Greenwood&rsquo; which featured local actors Mikie Galvin, Ellen O&rsquo;Shea and Luke Courtney.
Rachel Griffin also showcased her short film &lsquo;The Time I Spoke To The Sky&rsquo;.
Both Killarney filmmakers are in line for Ireland&#8217;s Young Filmmaker of the Year award and while the results are now known to participants, they remain a closely guarded secret until Wednesday night&rsquo;s RT&Eacute; broadcast.
&ldquo;This festival received 1,000 entries and on the day 34 finalists were shown,&rdquo; explained Glen&rsquo;s father Brian.
&ldquo;The event was recorded for TV. There is a strict media blackout on proceedings, however, it will be televised so tune in to find out how things went for these creative and brave Killarney locals.&rdquo;
&lsquo;Ireland&#8217;s Young Filmmaker of the Year Awards 2023&rsquo; will air at 7pm next Wednesday night when Stephen Byrne and Gemma Bradley host the 27th annual ceremony for young budding filmmakers between the ages of seven and 18.
