Animation Song of the Sea has been named Best Irish Film of the year at this evening's IFTA awards in Dublin.

The film, which is due out in Irish cinemas in July, is directed by Tomm Moore, and the latest work from Kilkenny-based studio Cartoon Saloon.

The cast and crew of Patrick's Day will also be celebrating tonight, with a script award for writer/director Terry McMahon, and Best Lead Actor for Moe Dunford. Deirdre O'Kane won Best Actress for her role in biopic Noble. Noble's Sarah Greene picked up both the Best Supporting Actress and the IFB Rising Star awards.
