...both travelogue & biography, shot through with fragments of drama as we follow Irish photographer John Minihan from West Cork, Ireland to Paris, revisiting the life of his most famous subject, Samuel Beckett. John Minihan, Ireland’s greatest living photographer has captured many great literary and cultural figures; John Banville, Seamus Heaney, Edna O’Brien, Francis Bacon, Van Morrsion, The Who and Samuel Beckett to name just a few.
