If you missed the Electric Picnic Festival in Co. Laois last September - or if you're just aching to relive the experience - here's your chance.
Boho musician Nick Seymour and economist David McWilliams are the on-camera guides through the festival during the hour long film, which captures performances from Arcade Fire, Nick Cave, and Doves, as well as Kraftwerk's first recorded show in 12 years.
There's also interviews with the bands, the comedians, the festival goers and the locals.
The intimate premiere Irish screening will take place Tuesday July 4 at 7pm, but tickets go on sale June 28. If you were at Electric Picnic the first time around you are being given a chance to grab tickets before everyone else - just email [email protected] and know that the limit is two reserved seats per person. All tickets must be purchased in advance through the IFI Box Office at 01-679-5744.
For those who miss out, the film will also be aired on BBC2 on 18 July.
