Featuring a boy called Sol whose world is plunged into darkness when his beloved grandmother dies, the film explores the different aspects of grief (shock, yearning, disorientation and resolution) through the eyes of a child.

Produced by Paper Owl Films with support from NI Screen&#8217;s Irish Language Broadcast Fund. <\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like to watch the full film below is a link to view it on TG4\u2019s player;    <a href=\"https:\/\/nasc.tg4.tv\/Sol\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/nasc.tg4.tv\/Sol<\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe Celtic Media Festival (CMF) is one of the most prestigious and long-established in these islands and is held each year, rotating between venues in the various Celtic nations and regions.
