PROGRAMME ONE

POBAL

Pobal is Louis Marcus’s breathtaking panorama of Irish life in 1969. The spirit and character of the Irish people are observed through the lens of cinematographer Bob Monks in a dynamic series of rural and urban portraits, accompanied by the rousing music of Seán Ó Riada.

PROGRAMME TWO

DUBLINERS SEAN AGUS NUA

This vibrant short film juxtaposes images of Dublin from the early 1900s with scenes of Dublin populated by ordinary Dubliners in the early 1970s with a wry commentary about the rare aul times in English and Irish.
