New feature documentary 'Buried Alive' for TG4 TV premiers at Galway Film Festival.

Marina composed the original score for the new documentary “Beo Faoin bhFód” (Buried Alive) for TG4. It’s a haunting, unforgettable film- the story of Mick Meaney, the Irish labourer buried alive in a coffin for 61 days in 1968 in a doomed feat to get into the Gusiness Workd Book of Records. 

Premiered at the Galway Film Festival and recently covered by The Guardian. 

Produced by Black Lobster Productions and directed by Daire Collins.
