We, The Masses is a short animated film based on the artwork of Robyn O'Neil.

The film was conceived of at Werner Herzog's Rogue Film School and funded by the Frameworks scheme with the support of the Irish Film Board, RTE and The Arts Council of Ireland.

Note from the Director Eoghan Kidney:

I see We, The Masses as an exercise in adaptation; but not of a literary piece, instead it is an animated adaptation of artwork by Robyn O'Neil.

Robyn and I worked very closely together to articulate her still images in time and sound. I tried my best to translate her world and the meaning within it. The result may seem surreal at first, but is rooted in Robyn's very real intentions and motivations in her quite brilliant images.

    This is good to see. I still have 2 of Robyn's drawings from RFS '10. Great to see them move. Nice choice of music, too.
