Comment from Zoe Smith

Whether you’re into effects-heavy blockbusters or hip art house flicks, you’ll likely still enjoy the vibe at Dublin’s coolest cinema, the Irish Film Institute (IFI). In the center of Dublin’s popular Temple Bar District, the institute is home to a cinema, library, bookshop and café, and hosts an ever-changing roster of independent films, many of which are not shown anywhere else in Ireland.

Not is the IFI the best place in town to catch art house and foreign films, but the institute also champions Irish filmmakers, keeping an archive of Irish films and running events and film festivals to educate cinema-goers in film culture and Irish film heritage.
