Declan Clarke - Group Portrait with Explosives
Mother's Tankstation, 41-43 Watling St, Ushers Island (screened at 5pm Thurs-Sat). Until Dec 20 motherstankstation.com
In his new, 42 minute, 16mm film (transferred to HD) Declan Clarke, formerly of Clarke& McDevitt, traces unlikely links between South Armagh during the worst of the Troubles and Brno, the second city of the Czech Republic. The latter became notorious for its brutalist architecture thanks to its manufacturing industries, the former was one of the most heavily monitored parts of the world via a network of watchtowers and cameras in the 1980s and early 1990s. Latecomers won't be admitted.

Martin Sharry, from Inis Oírr by way of Ballymun, has rarely seemed like an artist comfortable with any fixed position. That remoteness has given his solo work a mesmerising, outsider quality. Now he directs his first play, a modern farce about politics and love in which a couple, down on their luck, take in a lodger. The lodger and wife have an affair, a child is born, and five years later the couple is contentedly reunited while their lodger has found work. Could it really be as straightforward as that?
