Girl with guitar

Delphine comes into a guitar store every day and amateurishly plucks at a priceless Les Paul. But she’s hiding a secret…

This great short is actually one of only two directing credits of the Irish singer-songwriter Nick Kelly. More on Delphine:

Nick wrote and directed his own first short film, “Delphine” in the summer of 2003 under the auspices of the Irish Film Board�s Short Shorts scheme. Writing in the Irish Times, Michael Dwyer sung “Delphine”’s praises, noting that “this witty vignette packs a sharp punchline”. “Delphine” ran before SCHOOL OF ROCK in 26 screens across Ireland, has been screened at festivals around Ireland and internationally. It was selected by Jameson for inclusion on their “Take 5” programme for screening at Irish and UK airports, and was nominated for Best Irish Short at the 2004 Irish Film and Television Awards. So far “Delphine” has been bought for broadcast by TV stations in Canada, France, Spain and Japan.
