Our Festival

There will be panel discussions and Q & A's where topical issues of the day will be enthusiastically debated with filmmakers, guest speakers, industry personnel and audience members. We believe that equality is key to enriching filmmaking and audiences and it is core to this festival.

Festival 2023

The Catalyst International Film Festival will host the 4th edition of the festival from Limerick on 30th March to 1st April, presenting a film programme that celebrates diverse stories and storytellers currently under-represented on screen and behind the camera.

Our Mission

 Catalyst International Film Festival presents a film programme  that prioritises stories and storytellers currently under-represented on  screen and behind the camera. We want to create a more inclusive  industry and films screened here will promote gender equality, diversity  and inclusion whether in content, key creative roles or crew.

RUTH NEGGA | FESTIVAL AMBASSADOR

“I am absolutely thrilled and delighted to be an ambassador for the Catalyst International Film Festival in Limerick. I feel that the Catalyst International Film Festival can and will act as a compass, a beacon, a buoyant celebration of the multitude of exciting stories that are brimming in modern Ireland. And I am thrilled of course, that this is all to take place in Limerick. A city of determination, of grit and resilience, of uncowed beauty with a modern and multicultural identity, that has a diverse and supportive artistic community.

It’s the perfect place for a meeting of all these waters.” (Ruth Negga)


Dr Susan Liddy, film festival founder and co-director, is enthusiastic about the festival’s association with Ruth Negga. 

“We are very proud and honoured to welcome the talented actor, Ruth Negga, to the role of Ambassador for Catalyst International Film Festival. Ruth is hugely supportive of the festival’s ethos so there is a real meeting of minds in this partnership. Ruth also has strong ties to Limerick, having lived in the city for many years as a child. Her connection remains strong and, indeed, she still has extended family living here. We look forward to working with her to focus attention on the need for a more diverse and inclusive industry.”
