“An Irish Goodbye”, written and directed by East Belfast filmmaker Ross White and his creative partner Tom Berkeley was the only UK/Irish film to be shortlisted for the 2023 Oscars.
Now the film is one step closer to the final glory, having been announced in the top five films in the category today.
