Development is the name of the game and Loopline is constantly scanning for ideas. We are very excited about several projects, in particular our proposed film on the Afro-Beat legend Fela Kuti and his son Femi and the sculptor who created The Albert Memorial, John Henry Foley. We welcome interested broadcasters...  
   
    John Henry Foley - Ghost Of The Empire
John Henry Foley's sculptures celebrate the heroes of the British Empire in his native Ireland, India, United States and England. A century later their near destruction became a symbol of successful rebellion, but the genius of Foley's work lives on.

    Hallowed Ground - The Quest For The Secrets Of Newgrange
Newgrange has been called a womb, a tomb a calendar, a temple, an observatory, a time machine and an ancient mecca akin to a Stone Age Las Vegas! Its purpose has long been the source of heated debate yet the site remains a cryptic porthole to the past, posing far more questions than the answers it provides. 'Hallowed Ground' will combine the uncommon with the unconventional to give a kaleidoscopic view of this one of the world's oldest and mysterious structures.

    The Quiet Man - A Milestone Or A Millstone?
John Ford's 'The Quiet Man" has been a phenomenon ever since its release in 1951. Our documentary intends to tell the untold story of the drama surrounding the making of the film, which for better or worse, gave a new world identity to Ireland. We meet surviving original cast and extras who throw light on the great adventure.

    Outside Looking In - Irish Art In Question
This film traces the difficult and controversial struggle of the emergence of Modern Art in Ireland. The film will question our received notions of how modern Irish art has developed in the 20th Century and will fully articulate, for the first time, the achievements of artists in the forties, fifties and sixties and how our past and their work ultimately informs our present and future.
