The final film to star Danika "Nika" McGuigan received its Irish premiere in her hometown of Clones, Co Monaghan this evening.
The 33-year-old daughter of former boxing champion Barry McGuigan died two years ago following a short illness.
She is one of the lead actors in 'Wildfire', which was produced in Ireland in 2020.
It is directed by Cathy Brady and stars Nora-Jane Noone alongside the late Nika McGuigan.
The film follows two sisters in an Irish border town as they come to terms with their mother's mysterious death.
Speaking ahead of the event, Barry McGuigan said it is a fitting tribute to his daughter's legacy and exceptional talent.
"Our hearts are broken that Nika is not here to see the success of her last performance, but my family and I are comforted to see it on the big screen with our friends, family and the community in Clones," he said.
Earlier this summer, Nika McGuigan posthumously won Best Actress Film at the 2021 IFTA Film and Drama Awards for her performance in the film.
Ahead of the screening this evening, Nika McGuigan’s parents Barry and Sandra were presented with the IFTA award by founder and Chief Executive of the Irish Film and Television Academy Áine Moriarty.
'Wildfire' was written by Newry-born filmmaker Cathy Brady, who also makes her directorial debut with the drama.
It was filmed in locations across the island of Ireland including Belfast, Newry, Narrow Water, Dundalk and Dublin.
Hosted by Clones Film Festival and presented by Wildcard, the film was shown at Barry McGuigan Park in the town at 6pm this evening.
Tickets were sold out for the outdoor event.
'Wildfire' will be released in Ireland and the UK on 3 September.
