Emmet Kirwan has joined GAA star Philly McMahon as one of the special guests at the first Hot Press, Ana Liffey Drug Project and London School of Economics Drug Policy Town Hall meeting, which is taking place at 6.30pm on Tuesday June 12 in Dublin’s Wood Quay Venue.
Emmet has co-written and stars in Dublin Oldschool, a new Irish film that “tells the story of Jason, a wannabe DJ, on a drug-fuelled trip through the streets of Dublin as he stumbles from one session to another. Somewhere between the DJs, decks, and drug busts he stumbles across a familiar face from the past, his brother Daniel. Daniel, an educated heroin addict, is living on the streets. The brothers haven’t seen or spoken to each other in years but over a lost weekend they reconnect and reminisce over raves, tunes and their troubled past. Two brothers living very different lives might have more in common than they think.”
With a supporting cast that includes Ian Lloyd Anderson, Seana Kerslake and Sarah Greene, there’s a massve buzz – no pun intended! – around the film, which hits Irish screens on June 29.

Expect a night of lively debate at the Wood Quay venue with added surprises!
