The film details the impact of an affair and how people can self-destruct in the face of deceit.

Director Douglas Ray will take part in a Q&A following the screening along with Antonia Campbell-Hughes.

She says: “This film has great pace, is at times hilarious and also quite shocking. It’s a great example of quality film making on a budget.”

“I’m so delighted to be included in the Belfast Film Festival and to be coming along for ‘Swansong’,” she said.
