Daddy’s Boy
, Renèe Helèna Browne, 2020, 22 minutes
Framed by the moulding and transformation of a plasticine dinosaur and presence of sci-fi classic, 
Jurassic Park
, the film invites viewers into the world of Browne’s rural Irish home. Intimately depicted, the film then brings its viewers in on its sense of unease and breakdown, as it delves into a longing for home that is simultaneously haunted by the claustrophobia and alienation of traditional expectations surrounding identity.
Sanctus!
, Renèe Helèna Browne, 2024, 28 minutes
Sanctus! 
is a film installation exploring devotion in relation to portraiture, faith, and belonging. Browne presents a fragmented portrait of rally car culture in Donegal as a route to finding understanding with their mother Helen. The 28 minute film moves through opening ceremony celebrations, drivers’ preparations, bystanders' excitements, to race day action, and adjacent amateur drifting competitions. Weaving through these scenes are encounters between mother and child, as they examine Helen’s relationship with faith, loss, and the afterlife. The project borrows its title from the Latin word for ‘holy’, which was chanted three times by the Prophet Isaiah upon seeing an apparition of God.
Sacred Disease
, Renèe Helèna Browne, 2019, 20 minutes
Sacred Disease 
is a two-colour animation with voice-over essay. This voiceover, written and performed by Browne, is an exploration of language and its power when consumed by the performance of romantic partnership. An episode of T.V series Sex and the City is examined next to the mythological love story of Acontius and Cydippe from the Roman poet Ovid’s book ‘The Heroides/Letters of Heroines’ (5CE).
