We reclaim hidden narratives of Irish life, re-inserting critical events into public consciousness,
For BBC NI & TG4 we produced AICÍD:The Great Flu Pandemic in Ireland.
Aicíd gives an account of the 1918 influenza pandemic in Ireland. Schools were closed, work was disrupted and, more critically, the 1918 football finals were postponed. With dramatic reconstructions and original research, this documentary revealed, for the first time, the earliest recorded outbreak of the 1918 influenza virus in Ireland.
