About Me

Robert and Jessica seem the perfect couple. They have a beautiful home and no kids to disturb the smooth running of their middle class lives. Robert leaves each morning for the office while Jessica works towards the first exhibition of her paintings. True, Robert is a little too busy to support his wife in her art but her best friend Beck is always on hand to help out there. Meanwhile, in the Czech Republic's romantic city of Prague, Jarka hopes she's found love in the chatrooms of the internet as her cybersex sessions with her special new friend Robert are about to move up a level.Mrs Friendly is a 48 minute film currently in post production and due for release in July. Directed by Declan Cassidy at Timesnap, produced by Bill Tyson at Timesnap with production managed by Carole Dunphy, the film stars Corina Grant as Jarka (a.ka. Mrs Friendly, Sara James as Beck, Berni McLaughlin as Jessica and Richard Wall as Robert. It was shot on location in Ireland and Czech Republic in late 2006 and early 2007.
