NATIONAL FOLK THEATRE Thurs 5th - Sat 21st (excl Sun 8th & 15th) • 8.30pm This is a dramatic and powerful new production by the National Folk Theatre of Ireland about one woman’s journey to find a place she can call home. It’s a story of leave-takings and new beginnings, of love and loss and adventure, and above all, a story full of hope. Set against the backdrop of emigration, or ‘the Irish habit of going away’, Imigéin delves deep into the Irish experience of that search for home – the struggles and the triumphs, the set-backs and the successes. Rich in music, song and dance, this story will resonate with audiences, inspire you, make you laugh and move you. Don’t miss the chance to see this ground-breaking production in Kerry’s own, Siamsa Tíre this autumn.

A frontier on the very edge of Europe, the Wild Atlantic Way is a place like no other, which in turn has given its people a unique outlook on life. Here you can immerse yourself in a different way of living. Here you can let your freer, spontaneous side breathe. Here you can embrace the Wild Atlantic Way of Life. The most memorable holidays always have a touch of wildness about them, and the Wild Atlantic Way will not disappoint. With opportunities to view the raw, rugged beauty of the highest sea cliffs in Europe; experience Northern Lights dancing in winter skies; journey by boat to many of the wonderful islands off our island; experience the coast on horseback; or take a splash and enjoy the many watersports available. Stop often at the many small villages and towns along the route. Every few miles there are places to stretch your legs and have a bite to eat, so be sure to allow enough time take it all in. For the foodies, you can indulge in some seaweed foraging with a local guide with a culinary experience so you can taste the fruits of your labours. As night falls enjoy the craic at traditional music sessions and even try a few steps of an Irish jig! It’s out on these western extremities – drawn in by the constant rhythm of the ocean’s roar and the consistent warmth of the people – that you’ll find the Ireland you have always imagined.

Irish feature films, feature documentaries and animated features compete for the relatively limited screen time available in Irish cinemas with the best in the world. When given the right exposure Irish audiences respond very well to Irish films and increasingly the BSÉ/IFB is engaging with filmmakers and distributors to support and develop new ways for Irish films to find their audiences and for Irish audiences in turn to have access to Irish films.” JAMES MORRIS Chairman Bord Scannán na hÉireann/ the Irish Film Board IRISH FILM BOARD CONTENTS Bord Scannán na hÉireann / the Irish Film Board (IFB) is CHIEF EXECUTIVE INTRODUCTION... 4 Under the Hood: Voices from Belarus.......................... 73 Ireland’s national film agency.

With the support of the IFB, the hard work and creative endeavours of Irish talent in front and behind the camera has been rewarded with both local and international recognition and awards. As the development agency for film, television and animation in Ireland, the IFB is committed to supporting Irish talent, creativity and enterprise. In conjunction with the Irish Government’s continued support for the industry with the advent of the new film and television tax credit in 2015, the Board are focused on the future evolution of Board Scannán na hÉireann/the Irish Film Board. With this in mind, we have begun the consultation process on a new Five Year Strategic Plan for the agency, which will focus on the future goals for the agency itself, the development of the industry overall and the outcomes the IFB aims to deliver for Irish creative talent, Irish and international audiences and the Irish digital economy. With the publication of the new strategy document in 2015, we hope to ensure that the IFB continues to provide a strong foundation for the making of film, television and animation in Ireland.

  • There Are Many Kerry Men Who Say There Are Only Two Real Kingdoms - the Kingdom of God, and the Kingdom of Kerry
    There are many Kerry men who say there are only two real Kingdoms - The Kingdom of God, and the Kingdom of Kerry. The Kingdom of Kerry contains Killarney of the lakes, Tralee of the Roses, and Listowel of the writers. The County is distinguished by a gossamer-like lunacy which is addictive but not damaging. John B. Keane 1 The Gathering 2013, An exhibition of work by Kerry artists Published by The Copper House as part of The Gathering Ireland 2013. Accompanies the exhibitions at the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, Killarney and at The Copper House Gallery, Dublin. All images and text copyright of the artists. Designed by Fire, Dublin www.fire.ie Printed by Castle Print, Galway www.castleprint.ie Cover image Time and Distance, Carol Cronin This publication was grant-aided by: Sponsored by: With Support from: FEXCO 2 3 Foreword Kerry has long been an inspiration to artists. The landscape, seascape, culture, heritage and the people, inspire and provoke responses from those who communicate through their creativity. This exhibition showcases a selection of the creativity that exists in Kerry. The broader picture of creativity, writing, music, dance, film, visual arts, theatre, circus arts and much more could not be contained in a single display of work! This exhibition is of tremendous significance as it brings together the best of contemporary painters in Kerry. Minister Deenihan and the Arts Office have worked together on this project to provide a showcase of Kerry artists, and their thoughts on ‘The Gathering’. Following the Department’s hosting of work in Killarney and the Dublin showing in The Copper House Gallery, the Exhibition will return to tour Kerry, there will be an online version (www.kerrycoco.ie/en/allservices/arts) of the catalogue making this exhibition widely available and an important tool to promote the artists involved.
