Boomerang is the debut short film by Diarmuid Doran. The film was warmly received in Irish and European film festivals in 2019. Shot on location in Dublin and Paris Boomerang stars Mike Timms and Sofia Nilsson and is minimalist in approach with a contemporary noir style.
Boomerang has also had the honour of being selected for inclusion in the prolific AVA Library, a streaming provider offering a unique selection of European and international arthouse films.
AVA - We work with internationally renowned distributors and some of Europe’s best film festivals to create our film selection focusing on quality content. It is particularly important for us to showcase European, arthouse and niche films that reflect the diversity of library users today.
Mike Timms
Mike plays the main character, a man at a turning point, ready for wherever events take him next.
Truly committed to the part Mike brought new layers to the story with his poignant attention to detail and near method style approach.
Mocici Loon
Mocici is a native Bolivian who was living on the streets of Paris at the time of shooting. He appears in Boomerang by chance when we met him on location and he agreed to be part of the film. Mocici passed his time in a church to stay warm during the winter days in Le Marais, Paris.
Sofia Nilsson
The charitable femme fatale that betrays all expectations.
Sophie’s performance elevates the film with a twist that delivers a killer final punch.
