About the Film

The Shore follows two boyhood best friends reuniting after 25-years of division. One of them was shot during the Northern Irish conflict and the ensuing misunderstanding drove them apart. 25 years later, returning from America, one tracks down his friend with an overwhelming sense of remorse.

Terry George – Biography

Northern Ireland film director and screenwriter, Terry George’s film craft has been lauded by peers and critics in the highest echelons of the industry. His screenwriting work on IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER (1993) and HOTEL RWANDA (2004) secured OSCAR nominations as well as numerous other international accolades. In 2012 he won an OSCAR for his short, THE SHORE (2011), which he wrote and directed. His most recent release, THE PROMISE (2016) is expected to receive comparable praise.
