THE HOUSE nominated for Prix Europa Award in Berlin

Tanya Doyle’s profoundly moving, autobiographical documentary ‘The House’, which explores the ideas of change, progression and shared experiences in a family dealing with loss and illness has been nominated for Best TV Documentary at Europe’s largest Television, Radio and Emerging Media Festival, Prix Europa. The Prix Europa nomination follows the Irish domestic premiere of the THE HOUSE at The Stranger Than Fiction Documentary Festival, Dublin, its broadcast by RTE in May 2009 and its subsequent invitation to screen at INPUT 2009 in Warsaw.

“We’re truly humbled to be nominated as one of the best of European documentary films this year. After the screening in Warsaw (INPUT 2009) and the fantastic reception the film recieved, we were reassured that the themes, the power and the emotion of The House would transcend to international audiences. We’re really looking forward to the festival.” – Daniel Hegarty, Producer of The House.

The House will be screened at the Haus des Rundfunks at 15.25 on Wednesday 21st October. The winner of the Best TV Documentary award will be announced at the award ceremony on Saturday, October 24th.
