An Island's Lament

Work:: An Island's Lament (S01644532323)

The Blasket Islands are situated just off the coast of County Kerry. It is the late 1930's and the Island is slowly dying. Most of its inhabitants have left to live on the mainland. Peadar and Marie with their son Christy are also planning to leave. It is not a decision they have come by lightly. So on their last day on the island, they share their thoughts and fears of what is before them and more importantly, what must be left! We also meet their daughter Bride, who has already left and now lives on the mainland. But her view on island life is somewhat different than that of her family.
