As part of the Night Time Economy Pilot Initiative, Kilkenny County Council and the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media in association with MOTHERLAND are presenting a special screening of the acclaimed documentary, “Don’t Forget to Remember,” at The Watergate Theatre on Friday 13th September at 7.30pm.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the film’s director, Ross Killeen, and renowned street artist Asbestos.

Don’t Forget to Remember is a feature documentary which follows the Irish street artist Asbestos as he and his family learn to navigate his mother’s diagnosis of Alzheimer’s and cope with her fading memories. The film is at once a moving portrait of one woman’s memory loss but also a celebration of a family coming together in the face of this condition.

Throughout this process, director Ross Killeen turns the lens on Asbestos, investigating his artistic process and examining the role that art can play as a tool to heal throughout even the most turbulent times of our life. In collaboration with Asbestos, the film opens an honest conversation about the delicate nature of memory

In association with Kilkenny County Council and the Kilkenny City Night Time Economy,the screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Ross Killeen and the artist, Asbestos.
