As a filmmaker struggles with his new documentary project and his work starts straying increasingly further from the truth he set out to capture, he is forced to confront aspects of his personality that had never been articulated before. Claoidhte is an experimental film about the nature of filmmaking exploring the blurriness of the line between life and art or truth and fiction. It is a portrait of an artist reluctantly finding himself at war with his own creation, an inner conflict which has started spilling over into the outside world.
