The winner of Best Irish Documentary at the Galway Film Fleadh last year will hit Irish cinemas this November, BREAKING OUT celebrates the remarkable life of Fergus O’Farrell, the renowned singer-songwriter best known for his timeless song “GOLD” which featured in the soundtrack to ONCE, the Oscar winning film and multi-Tony-award-winning musical. BREAKING OUT was filmed over ten years by Michael McCormack and has been hailed by Screen Daily as “a privilege to watch”.
Upon launch of the official trailer this month, director Michael McCormack had this to say about bringing the film to Irish audiences- “It’s a great pleasure to finally share Fergus O’Farrell’s inspirational story. At a time when we all need heroes, Breaking Out will fill your soul.”
