Born in Dublin and now living in Brooklyn, New York, Paul Rowley is a politically engaged film maker. Following ‘The Red Tree’, which tells the little-known history of Italian gay men being arrested and exiled to a remote island during Mussolini’s Fascist regime, he is now completing a feature documentary ‘Gays against Guns’ about the movement to end the gun violence epidemic in the United States. While in residence at CCI, Paul is working on a new script set in the Irish LGBTQ+ community in the early 1980s when being gay was still a criminal offence.
