Recent graduate Kevin Quinn (Film & Video '18) studied abroad at the National University of Ireland in Galway, and had the chance to meet up with members of his family during his stay. Looking over old pictures and memories shared by his aunts and uncles, he was inspired to write the script for The American Wake, which would become his senior thesis film. It’s the story of 18-year old Honora Parsons, who faces a life-altering decision when she’s offered the chance to immigrate to the United States. Kevin and a crew of Drexel students went back to Ireland to shoot the film, and soon enough Kevin found himself on Irish soil once more. This time, The American Wake was no longer just a senior project, but an official selection in one of Ireland’s most prestigious international film festivals.
