A movie director whose film was wiped out after a cyber attack is delighted after it was chosen for a prestigious Hollywood film festival.
In 2020, Dan Holmwood just finished filming a heartfelt short, called Scrumpy, featuring ten-year-old actor Arlo Buchanan from Dunleer in Co Louth, who also stars in a Christmas movie with actor Justin Long.
The film told the story how a young boy, played by Arlo, who lost his mother during childbirth, coped every year during his birthday, his endeavours to deal with his loss, and longing for the mother he never had.
