Reviews
“Mapmaker is a rare film…he also uses the camera to powerful effect, creating a vision of a landscape that is distinclty Irish yet rarely seen on screen.”
Sunday Times, 2002
“Mapmaker does have the merit of offering a very different take on seemingly familiar material, playing with preconceptions in order to subvert them.”
Sunday Tribune, 2002
“The drama is played out against a ruggedly beautiful and unfamiliar landscape captured in strikingly distinctive compositions by cinematographer Owen McPolin, and Gogan invests that drama with an escalating atmophere of menace.”
