Fans of the hit crime drama KIN are in for a treat at this year's Fastnet Film Festival, as cast and creators gather for a special behind-the-scenes event in Schull, West Cork.

KIN Uncovered takes place on Saturday, 24 May at 5pm, as part of the festival’s packed programme running from 21 to 25 May. The panel discussion will be moderated by award-winning director Paddy Breathnach.

Joining him are Aidan Gillen (Frank Kinsella), Maria Doyle Kennedy (Birdie Kinsella), Clare Dunne (Amanda Kinsella), and co-creator and writer Peter McKenna.

Together, they’ll explore the making of KIN, discussing its gripping storytelling, complex characters, and how the series became a standout in Irish television.

McKenna, a five-time IFTA winner, is also known for Hidden Assets, Red Rock, and Gangs of London series 3. Breathnach, whose directing credits include VIVA and Rosie, has recently worked on Netflix’s Bodkin and The Dry.
