From that Small Island

In the presence of the producer Bríona Nic Dhiarmada.

From that Small Island is an ambitious and ground-breaking feature documentary which tells the story of the Irish from the 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? Six million people live on the island of Ireland, but over 80 million people worldwide say that they are Irish. Narrated by Colin Farrell and featuring an original score by Colm Mac Con Iomaire, From That Small Island provides a compelling narrative of Ireland and the Irish people.

This feature film is the centrepiece of a project which also has a companion four-part television series and accompanying book forthcoming from Oxford University Press in 2026.
