Short Film Release: They Don’t Know Us

Screen Wexford is proud to share ‘They Don’t Know Us‘, a powerful new short musical film created by the talented young filmmakers of The Wexford Youth Film Project, coordinated by Therese Dalton.

This film follows the journey of five teenagers as they navigate identity, self-expression, and how the world perceives them. All original songs were written and performed by members of the County Wexford Youth Film Project, with music recorded and mixed by Brendan Carthy at Orchard Studios.

Filmed on location at Kennedy College, New Ross, the film is now available to watch on YouTube.

Based in St. Michael’s Theatre, the County Wexford Youth Film Project provides hands-on filmmaking training for young people aged 13–20. From scriptwriting to post-production, participants collaborate to create films that reflect the issues and themes shaping their lives. Since 2005, more than 400 young people have taken part.

They Don’t Know Us is a County Wexford Youth Film Project short, funded by the County Wexford Arts Office and the Arts Council of Ireland, in partnership with St. Michael’s Theatre, New Ross.
