On Sunday 13 March we join with Reclaim the Vision of 1916 and SIPTU for a historic first screening together of George Morrison’s Mise Éire and Saoirse?—as the director intended.

George, who is the patron of our club, has agreed to be present and will receive a presentation to honour his contribution to the world of cinema. Peadar Ó Riada, son of the legendary Seán Ó Riada, will reprise some of the music written by his father for the films.

The event will take place in the presence of the President of Ireland, Michael D. Higgins.
