Films by Robert Kane Pappas

  • To Age Or Not To Age

    Transforming the Human Condition

    Is Human nature and political behavior largely an artifact of lifespan?

    George Bernard Shaw apparently thought so.

  • Orwell Rolls in His Grave

    America is deeply divided.
    Ever wonder why - how did this come to pass?

    Before the 1996 telecommunications bill, 50 companies controlled pieces of the mainstream media,

    Today it’s around 5.

    We can talk about social media, but how is it triggered?

  • Some Fish Can Fly

    Some Fish Can Fly

    A story about impossible love.

    Some Fish Can Fly seems so personal that Pappas must have lived it. It’s a love story so observant and wise, with such winning actors. The film, furthermore, is ambitious in its structure- with the main character vainly attempting to make a film drawn from his ambivalent romance, while he has yet to come to terms with its ultimately impossible nature. The film represents that Pappas did, in fact experience what he expresses with such tenderness.”

    “To What Great Lengths True Love Will Travel:
    In telling his love story…it is Mr Pappas’ achievement to determine that in the map of love between Cork, Ireland and New York, there is no Hollywood “
