In this episode we sit down with filmmaker Oisín Moroney to talk about his poignant and beautifully crafted short film Ribbit. The film tells the story of a family whose fragile peace is shattered by a move to a new home. As the young parents grapple with the pressures of change and uncertainty, their son becomes increasingly adrift and isolated — a quiet, heartbreaking exploration of family, disconnection, and the unspoken struggles that lie beneath the surface.
Oisín shares insight into the inspiration behind Ribbit, his approach to capturing emotional realism, and how the film’s visual and narrative style reflect the family’s unraveling dynamic.
Ribbit has been nominated Best Student Film at the 16th Underground Cinema Film Awards.
