Artist Statement
Filmmaker Orlagh Heverin, Writer/Director, presents Deoch Dance.
Deoch: Irish for “drink/immerse/cover with liquid”.
My short film Deoch Dance (2021), centres around Sheila who is weighed down from the effects of living with active addiction. I have explored movement in this short to convey the narrative and the energy of the locations. Two of the locations I chose are associated with recovery. I make use of strong visuals images and purposely left the narrative loose so that the viewer can form their own interpretation and identification with Sheila’s journey.
