Tonnta | Amble

TONNTA captures the bittersweet story of a father who sees his daughter only part of the time, reconnecting with her on a weekend getaway that echoes the simple beach trips of childhood. Set along the Irish coast, the video blends cinematic and camcorder-style shots to portray moments of joy, vulnerability, and nostalgia—seaside swims, arcade laughter, and cramped mobile homes.

Directed by Donnagh Fitzpatrick and starring Laurence Kinlan, TONNTA is a heartfelt look at family bonds, showing how even brief reunions can hold the deepest connections.

Lonely Island | Amble

'Lonely Island' is a short film about the expedition of an elderly gentleman as he ambles through his homeland one final time. With the passing of his beloved, the once-significant place that held profound meaning in their lives has now become a desolate, monochrome expanse in the absence of her warmth and vibrancy.

In the vast and wild Irish landscape, the man's footsteps lead him through the elemental forces of nature—wind, earth, fire, and water—each unveiling a tapestry of cherished memories. Amidst the sweeping scenes, his younger self and the woman he loved come to life, their presence weaving not only a tale of personal connection but also a profound intertwining with the very essence of the island they once called home.
