From That Small Island: The Story of the Irish

The story of the Irish is an ambitious and ground-breaking documentary series which tells the story of the Irish from the very first inhabitants to the present day, tracing the ebb and flow of people into and out of the island. Who are the Irish? Where did they come from? Where do they go? This documentary, narrated by Colin Farrell, seeks to answer those questions.
