'Teeth' To Screen At 'Message To Man' International Film Festival

An Irish Film Board backed film, 'Teeth', directed by Ruairí O’ Brien and John Kennedy and produced by Noreen Donohoe, is to screen at the ‘Message to Man’ International Film Festival, which takes place June 15-22, 2007, in St Petersburg, Russia.
The short 'last laugh' production, starring Niall O’Brien and Niall Tobin, tells the tale of two old friends, their teeth and a series of events that leaves them lost for words.
'Message to Man', an annual festival of documentary, short and animated films is organized by the International Federation of Associations of Film Producers (Paris). The main events include an International Debut Competition, a Russian Documentary Films Competition and various special presentations which take place throughout the festival.
Teeth was funded through the Short Shorts scheme, which is financed by Bord Scannán na hÉíreann / the Irish Film Board. This weekends screening in St Petersburg follows screenings at a host of European festivals already this year, including the Brussels Short Film Festival, Huesca in Spain, Britspotting in Germany and the Sonar Film Festival in Italy.
