Il Postino: The Postman, was a hugely successful Italian film made in 1994, but behind the scenes tragedy had played out during production. The lead, Massimo Troisi was plagued by heart problems relating to a childhood illness. The film鈥檚 British director, Michael Radford, was faced with a difficult decision, to finish the film or stop, as Massimo鈥檚 health deteriorated on set. He opted to push on with the production, but Massimo didn鈥檛 quite make it. He died the day after principle filming ended. Michael went on to complete the film, wanting to make it something that Massimo would have been proud of.

Scott Duggan lives in a terraced house, in Cork in Ireland. He knows a handful of people in the street, but not many - everyone's busy. Or at least they were until Covid 19 meant they all had to stay home. That gave Scott an idea, to project films on a wall for the whole neighbourhood.
