The director of THE QUIET GIRL, Colm Bairéad, has said he feels ‘honoured’ after being named as one of the ‘British & Irish Film and TV Breakouts of 2022’ by The Hollywood Reporter. The film is one of 15 movies shortlisted in Los Angeles for an Oscar nomination in the best international feature film category earlier this month. The American magazine said the momentum that the film has gathered since release has been ‘extraordinary’.
