Dónal Lunny is one of the most iconic and influential Irish musicians of his generation – a founding member of Planxty, The Bothy Band and Moving Hearts, and a creative force behind some of the most enduring sounds in Irish music.

Proudly produced by South Wind Blows, 'In Time' is the first film to tell his story. It’s both an intimate portrait of a singular artist and a reflection on a life lived entirely for art’s sake.

We’re very proud to announce that our film In Time, the first ever cinematic portrait of the legendary Dónal Lunny, will premiere at the Galway Film Fleadh on Friday 11 July at 5pm.

A founding member of Planxty, The Bothy Band and Moving Hearts, DĂłnal Lunny's contribution to Irish music and culture is immeasurable.

In Time reveals a life lived entirely for art’s sake - charting Lunny’s creative and personal journey against the backdrop of seismic cultural, political and historic change in Ireland and beyond. The film fuses music with memory, performance and biography, exploring the deeply human experiences that have shaped one of Ireland’s most enduring artists.

Tickets are available now via galwayfilmfleadh.com! 🎥
