There’s a dog-friendly cinema screening happening in Dublin soon

Exquisite news for all involved.

Going to the cinema is class.

You land in there, you get comfortable, you see your movie, you enjoy yourself, and you leave.

A delightful time for everybody lucky enough to experience it – and now it appears as though cinema is only about to get more enjoyable.

At least, for one screening it is anyway.

As part of the upcoming Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival, audiences will be able to attend a special screening of animated film, Marona’s Fantastic Tale – with their furry friend in tow.

Directed by Romanian animator Anca Damien, who will also be in attendance, the film tells the story of a lost puppy who reflects on her life and adventures as she tries to find her way back home.

The film will be shown in the Odeon Cinema in Dublin’s Point Village – and although we don’t have an exact date as to when the screening will be taking place, it’ll be sometime late February or early March, so keep yourself free.

This year’s festival is particularly family and student focused, with a series of workshops, short films, and Q&As taking place during its run.

Disney Pixar’s Onward will sponsor the festival’s First Frame event, a showcase of young film students’ work and a chance for them to chat with members of the industry and do a bit of networking.

The Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival runs from February 26 to March 8.
