Watch relatively unknown Irish writer and director Benjamin Cleary's short film Stutterer below.

Speaking on RTE Radio 1's Morning Ireland today Cleary was obviously over the moon and when asked what he would do with his Oscar he suggested leaving it in the 'auld pairs' house.

Stutterer was shot in London over a number of months with a budget of only €5,000 that Cleary and his crew raised themselves. This was Cleary's directorial debut and it’s not a bad return for his first attempt walking away with the Oscar for best Live Action Short.

If you've got 13 minutes free in your day we really suggest you watch this beautifully shot, emotional short film.
