An old man revists a hospital where he suffered from tuberculosis when younger, and where he fell in love with Killian, a beautiful young nurse. He sees the ghosts from his past in the derelict hospital. The script won an award (£7000 cash and a trophy) as the winner of the RTE/Cork Film Centre Short Script Competition. The film was shot in Burntwood Essex in a disused asylum and was shown at the Cork Film Festival (2003) and broadcast twice on RTE the Irish National TV Station. It was aso shown at the Celtic Heart Festival at Riverside Studios last year.
