  • Inis Oírr lies 6 miles off the coast of Connemara. With over 250 inhabitants it is the smallest of the three Aran Islands. While embracing progress and change, this rocky outpost has managed to retain much of its traditional island way of life. Inhabited by communities whose everyday language is Irish, the Aran Islands are immediately striking for being a desert of rock where there is scarcely any shelter, no mountains or woodland to be found. What pasture there is has been largely man made. James Joyce once wrote that these islands could be the place to go to find the real Ireland -- something that has particular resonance today. Filmed from January to December 2010, "Bliain In Inis Oírr" is a four part series that follows a diverse mix of individuals living on the island. From new-comers to those who have lived there for generations, audiences will be given an insight to day-to-day island life and the reasons why each of these people has chosen to make this magical, yet harsh, place their home. Each of the four episodes features one particular season, highlighting seasonal activities and festivals as well as the passage of time through the changing weather and vegetation of the island.

    Absolutely priceless, just priceless!
    Such splendid viewing, from start to finish!
    And to think, that I'll be right there later this year. A life's dream, about to come true.
    Thank you for sharing.

    I stayed on the largest island and came home to US wanting to live there. No chaos, no crime, no threat of corruption to the children. People go to church there. Sigh. Maybe someday.

    Thank you so very much for this wonderful movie. I am going to Inisheer to celebrate becoming 75 years old. I live in Georgia USA so this (and the other 3 episodes I will see soon) are marvelous to prepare me for the visit.

    Did anyone else double-take the Arts Center director Mairéad Ní Ghallchóir before recognizing her early Ros na Rún role

      I'm not sure if you'll see this or if you still care, but don't worry! They are all grown now but the lads work on the docks and the girls visit every summer.

    There is a small abandoned house on the island, A chimney one red door and one red window. As we were cycling someone said. "Thats all you need, A door to go in, a chimney to let the smoke escape and a window to look out at how miserable it is outside during the long winter." Id like to see a documentary made during the winter months about the island. yet still, is a very tranquil place.
