The Galway Film Fleadh would like to acknowledge the continued and unwavering support of The Arts Council, and all our sponsors for their faith in us, and belief in the power of cinema. In 2005, the Fleadh hosted
its inaugural Pitching Competition which has a prize fund of €3,000. The competition provides aspiring
film makers with a platform to pitch their ideas to an experienced panel of film professionals. It has been agreat success. For example, three years ago, fresh from college, Will Collins pitched an idea for a feature film
and walked off with the top prize. This year the Fleadh is enormously proud to be opening our festival with the finished product - My Brothers.
