About

To celebrate the launch of the tenth series of Two Minute Masterpiece, BBC Northern Ireland and Northern Ireland Screen invite festival goers to join them in scrolling back through the archives.

You can watch all the commissioned films to date – a mix of poetic documentaries, avant-garde art films, animations, and live-action shorts. Marvel at Oona Doherty’s performance in Divis Tower: Both Sides Now, be transported back to lockdown times watching Sorcha McGlinchey’s award-winning animation Rawr, or giggle at Katie McQuillan’s A to Z of NI – ultimately a celebration of life in Northern Ireland.

Tackling topics as diverse as transphobia, domestic violence, mental health, body image and female liberation,  these films sit alongside raucous comedies and heartwarming feel-good documentaries.

If you’re thinking of applying for the tenth series come along and get some inspiration, and if not, come and be astounded by the depth of filmmaking talent in Northern Ireland.
