Watch: Trailer unveiled for IFTA-nominated film Split Milk

The trailer has been released for the IFTA-nominated film Split Milk, set to arrive in cinemas on March 20.

Split Milk tells a story of an 11 year-old boy, who in 1984 inner city Dublin "dreams of becoming a great detective like his TV hero Kojak".

"Bobby sets up a private eye agency with his best friend. However, when Bobby’s rebellious older brother goes missing, their investigations turn chillingly real — leading them into secrets and danger far beyond what children are ready to face. Nevertheless, Bobby’s brave, loving and inspirational Mother leads him through these tough times," reads the logline.

Cillian Sullivan leads the cast as 11-year-old protagonist Bobby. Naoise Kelly plays his best friend Nell, and Danielle Galligan of House Of Guinness plays Bobby's mother. Other cast members include Laurence O'Fuarain, Pom Boyd, Lewis Brophy, and Justin Daniels Anene.

Spilt Milk marks the debuts of director Brian Durnin and writer Cara Loftus. It earned four nominations at the 2025 Irish Film & Television Academy (IFTA) Awards for: 'Best Film,' 'Best Director,' 'Best Script,' and 'Best Costume Design'.

The production was funded by Fís Eireann/Screen Ireland, Coimisiún na Meán, RTÉ, and Screen Scotland. The film made its World Premiere at Tallinn Black Nights International Film Festival in 2024, and won several awards across different categories at festivals like Glasgow Film Festival, Galway Film Fleadh, as well as Greece and Kerry International Film Festivals.
