Back in 2006, PJ allegedly composed the soundtrack for an indipendent film called "portable stones" by visual artist (and, apparently, sheep farmer) Orla Barry:

this is the film synopsis :
Quote:
Portable Stones is about a girl who leaves her home in the noisy city. She ends up living in a tent in a graveyard and becomes involved in a dream world. In the graveyard she hears voices which carry her through time. The voices speak of not speaking, the loss of body and the difficulty of communicating. The film builds up as a poem, line by line and verse by verse. There is no narrative structure and the story is created by associations. There are four characters: a man living together with his speechless brothers in a hut on a deserted island. five sisters who could be modern witches and chant riddles in an old ruin. a child struggling to reproduce a text she does not understand. and an old woman who is turning blind and struggling with words as she tries to read. All four characters represent different subconscious states and emotions, set against the protagonist's daily life in the graveyard and dreamlike images from the island.



well, other than the above, i know barely anything else about it, couldn't find a trailer, let alone the soundtrack.

is there any chance one of you gents or ladies can share something more?

That's remarkable - such a surprise that something unknown to the world at large can remain. How did you find out about it? The film seems only to exist in the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin. It looks as thought there was also an exhibition and an accompanying book of photos and text.
