Pentecost
- Client: Emu Productions
- Director: Peter McDonald
Pentecost is an Irish Film Board Signatures short film produced by EMU Productions which was written and directed by Peter McDonald.
At the 2010 Corona Cork Film Festival, the short was awarded Best Irish Short Film for its impressive skill in mastering the notoriously difficult art of comedy.
Pentecost is a coming of age story of a young boy who learns how to rebel against his father and the community. Against his will, Damian Lynch (11) is called in at the last moment to serve as an altar boy at an important mass in the local parish. He faces a choice: either conform to the status quo or serve an extended ban from his passion in life, football.
