In this episode we talk about what we loved and what we hated at this year's Audi Dublin International Film Festival - and reveal what the 'Surprise Film' was.

Jonathan Victory talks to Emer Reynolds about her stunning documentary on NASA’s Voyager mission,which screens at this year's Audi Dublin International Film Festival. It is one of humankind's greatest achievements. More than 12 billion miles away a tiny spaceship is leaving our Solar System and entering the void of deep space - the first man-made object ever to do so. Dying within its heart is a nuclear generator that will beat for perhaps another decade before the lights on Voyager 1 finally go out. But this little craft will travel on for millions of years, carrying a Golden Record bearing recordings and images of life on Earth. In all likelihood Voyager will outlast humanity. The Farthest will celebrates these magnificent machines, the men and women who built them and the vision that propelled them farther than anyone could ever have hoped. http://filmireland.net/

Actor Niamh Algar joined Jonathan Victory to talk about 3 films she features in at this year's Audi Dublin International Film Festival. In Lorcan Finnegan’s debut feature Without Name, Niamh plays Olivia, the apprentice to a middle-aged land surveyor, who takes up a job in a remote forest. Deep in the woods, he becomes aware of a malevolent presence, an intelligence of sorts. A silhouette flits between trees. The place fascinates the fragmenting Eric as much as it disturbs him. Is his mind playing tricks on him or is there some ancient horror wishing him harm? Niamh also talks about the short films she appears in, Gone and Pebbles, which are also screening at ADIFF. In Patrick Maxwell's Gone, Paul returns to his hometown to find that his ex-lover has a child with another man. As old sparks reignite, jealousy and revenge lead to fatal consequences. In Jonathan Shaw's Pebbles, on her 50th wedding anniversary, Ruby returns to the hotel where she spent her Honeymoon. Will her estranged husband return to honour a promise? Niamh also talks to Jonathan about the craft of acting, the industry and loads of other lovely stuff, including Niamh's favourite curse word (spoiler - it's "bejinges") Without Name screens on Saturday, 18th Feb 2017 at 6:00pm at the Light House Cinema. Gone and Pebbles screen as part of ADIFF Shorts 3 on Saturday, 25th February 2017 at 6:15pm at the Light House Cinema.

Grace Corry sat down with Grainne Humphreys to delve into the delights that await us at this year's Audi Dublin International Film Festival. http://www.diff.ie/ 2017 takes place 16 - 26 Feb 2017 http://filmireland.net/

The Harold & Maudecast recently covered the Audi Dublin International FIlm Festival where the film HIGH-RISE was a hot ticket screening. Featuring on our Abroadcast interviews is the Q&A with Director Ben Wheatley after the screening. The film, based on the JG Ballard book stars Tom Hiddleston, Jeremy Irons, Sienna Miller and Luke Evans. Directed by Wheatley, adapted for screen by Amy Jump.

This week’s podcast was recorded during the Audi Dublin International Film Festival and features a conversation with Peter Murphy and Rachael Moriarty, the directors of new Irish film Traders. Staring Killian Scott, Traders is about happens when ordinary folks facing financial ruin and misery decide to kill each other to win money, all the while obeying a strict code of conduct. Peter and Rachel talk about the film, the inspiration behind it and the work which has gone into getting it from idea to screen. It was recorded in the back of an Audi Q7 - the first ever Banter in Cars! - and big thanks to all at Audi, Paddy and Elena at 360PR and Nell at Element Pictures for their help with this.

Richard and Jonathan make an aural return in the middle of awards season to cast an eye over the difference between outstanding and best. The hosts preview the Audi Dublin International Film Festival looking forward to monkeys in post-coital positions and Frank Sinatra karate-chopping suspicious Koreans and tables. Plus a look at what's playing on the big screen, including Strangerland, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, The Assassin, Spotlight, Trumbo, Our Brand is Crisis and Deadpool.

June Butler chats to Grainne Humphreys, the festival director of the Audi Dublin International Film Festival, about the selection process involved in the festival and what's in store for Irish film lovers this year, including Sing Steet, Viva and this year's films from Reel Art, an Arts Council scheme designed to provide film artists with a unique opportunity to make highly creative, imaginative and experimental documentaries on an artistic theme, operated in association with Filmbase.

'Atlantic' is the latest film from the makers of the multi-award-winning documentary, The Pipe (2010). The film follows the fortunes of three small fishing communities – in Ireland, Norway and Newfoundland – which are at turns united and divided by the Atlantic Ocean. Grace Corry sat down with director Risteard O’Domhnaill ahead of the film's screening at the Audi Dublin International Film Festival to discuss the mounting challenges the communities face within their own industries.
