The Fourth Wall was a collaboration between Irish Film Institute and IAF. Rather than seeing the medium as a purely documentary tool, we were prompted to consider how film can unveil the intrinsic, even elusive, qualities of buildings and their settings.
In addition, there was a specially curated selection of footage from the IFI Irish Film Archive, and a symposium organised by GradCAM (Graduate School of Creative Arts and Media) in collaboration with UCD, Irish Architecture Foundation and the IFI.
