Lourdes Hoteles motelWritten and directed by Owen Fitzpatrick and produced by Anne Tweedy, this enigmatic and disturbing twelve-minute film incorporates a blend of various drawing techniques in its portrayal of a baby child abandoned to a beautiful yet violent landscape.

Commissioned by The Irish Film Board, R.T.. and The Arts Council as part of Frameworks, 'The Nest' went into production in January 2000 and was completed in October 2000.

The Nest takes us on a voyage from the comfort of home and civilisation towards the frightening reality of an indifferent universe.
