VIDEO: This magical clip gets to the heart of what it means to be Irish

Tony Cuddihy

We love this.

We’ve seen a lot of drone footage of Ireland over the last couple of years, but this is arguably the best yet.

Produced by SONDER Ireland, this takes you all around the country as various people – young and old – express what being Irish means to them.

There’s talk of Yeats, Guinness, cups of tea and endless biscuits, 1916, last year’s Marriage Referendum, courage, bravery, a bright future and how langer is to Cork as gobshite is to Dublin.

Wonderful.
