Presented in partnership with the Irish Film Institute, Hidden Ireland: A Celebration of Ireland in Documentary Film is a documentary film series offering insights into contemporary Irish life and into the past that has shaped it. It includes a range of sometimes conflicting perspectives from indigenous and foreign filmmakers, both amateur and professional. The films, which are drawn primarily from the IFI’s Irish Film Archive collection, will be introduced by US and Irish speakers.

This program is presented in conjunction with the exhibition
