In the midst of an unchallenging collection of soap opera specials and popular action movies, Christmas Day 2002 was the day chosen by RTÉ, Ireland’s state broadcaster, to screen Hit and Run, a dance film by Coiscéim Dance Theatre that they co-financed along with Bord Scannán na h-Éireann (The Irish Film Board) and An Chomhairle Ealaíon (The Arts Council).
