- **Event Name**: Song of the Sea — Sensory Screenings 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 04 Apr, 2026 at 11:00 am (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: The Dock presents a sensory-friendly screening of Cartoon Saloon's Oscar‑nominated classic, Song of the Sea, on Saturday 4 April at 11am.

Song of the Sea tells the story of Ben and his little sister Saoirse — the last seal-child — who embark on a fantastic journey across a fading world of ancient legend and magic in an attempt to return to their home by the sea. The film takes inspiration from the mythological Selkies of Irish folklore, who live as seals in the sea but become humans on land.

This event is a pilot screening for Sensory Screenings, a new film programme being developed at The Dock.

The Sensory Screenings programme is a new schedule of film screenings designed to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment for children and families, particularly for neurodiverse audiences or those who benefit from a more flexible cinema experience.

We aim to provide detailed information about each film in advance — including its duration, themes, age suitability, and any content considerations — so families can plan their visit with confidence. Where relevant, we also highlight potential triggers such as flashing lights, sudden loud sounds, strobe effects, or intense scenes.

We always welcome feedback from attendees to help us continually improve and make future screenings even more inclusive and comfortable.

For Song of the Sea, audiences should be aware of the following —

Duration: 94 minutes.

Themes: Family, grief and healing, Irish folklore, coming‑of‑age, and sibling relationships.

Tone: Gentle story with emotional depth and mild moments of peril.

Content: Magical beings, mythic imagery, and a few emotionally intense scenes linked to loss.

Age Rating: PG (IFCO) — mild scary scenes and grief/loss themes.

Triggers: Occasional tense or darker fantasy sequences; characters or creatures that may frighten younger children.

Sensory Notes: No strobe effects; some scenes involve mild peril.
