Fni Wrap Chat

We're joined today by award-winning filmmaker Barrie Dowdall on FNI Wrapchat, back in the studio for the first time in 12 weeks. Brought to you by Film Equipment Store and mixed by Bedford. Hot on the heals on the Packed out Screening at VDiff of his Latest docu-drama, Violet Gibson. Violet Gibson tells the story of the Irish Woman who tried to assassinate Benito Mussolini in 1926, on the cusp of the rise of fascism and the advent of WW2. Using a mixture of historical newsreel footage and shots filmed on-site in Rome, Barrie's documentary proves that if it wasn't true, you couldn't and wouldn't believe it. Incredible stuff. Barrie specialises in producing, directing and shooting documentaries of historical, human and social interest for broadcasters worldwide. He has worked in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Jordan, Nepal, Zambia, Nigeria, Indonesia, Australia, Venezuela, the United States and throughout Europe, producing work for various broadcasters including RTE, BBC, TG4, PBS, ZDF, The HISTORY CHANNEL, ABC,
