FAIRYTALE OF KATHMANDU

Director: NEASA NI CHIANAIN

IRELAND • 2007 • COLOUR • 60 MIN


NEASA NI CHIANAIN WAS INVITED BY THE POET CATHAL O SEARCAIGH TO ACCOMPANY HIM TO HIS SPIRITUAL HOME – NEPAL – AND FILM HIM THERE.
For a decade, the poet has made annual trips there, basking in its culture and repaying its hospitality by sponsoring young men in their studies. But the more Neasa Ni Chianain learns about the Nepalese side of O Searcaigh’s life, the more she feels impelled to question his motives, confronting him on camera. The answers she receives are surprisingly honest.To book, click [here]
