The Dreamers of Inishdara archiveSet in the present off the coast of Connemara, Galway Ireland on a headland which becomes an Island at high tide The Dreamers of Inishdara is a romantic comedy which tells the story of Leanah Dubh a half human half fairy girl who can crack a mans skull at half a mile with a hurling ball. Whilst locked in hostilities with her Landlord's brother, a Dublin Jackeen' Dick Branigan, who is intent on claiming and exploiting the land for himself she is visited by a travelling fiddle player Crow Murphy who is in fact the King of the Fairies in disguise. The fairy world, fearing the loss of the magic of the land of Ireland with the upsurge of 'Celtic tiger materialism' have decided to do something about it.
