Producer Fodhla 'overwhelmed' by Oscar nod

Irish producer Fodhla Cronin O'Reilly has said she is overwhelmed by her Oscar nomination for Best Animated Short.

Fodhla produced 'Head Over Heels', a short story about a husband and wife who have grown apart - he lives in the floor and she on the ceiling of the home they share.

The production premiered at the Cannes Film Festival last year.

Fodhla explains where she and her team got the inspiration for the story.

"We had the ending first and we developed the story backwards," she said.
