Echoes From History. Book and CD 
   Add to basketBasketAdd to favorites

In this CD collection of Recollections of 1916 and its aftermath - Echoes from History and the accompanying book, Maurice O'Keeffe and Jane O'Hea O'Keeffe capture the atmosphere of our revolutionary period. Those interviewed were good story-tellers. They recalled incidents which impacted vividly on their young minds and imaginations. For the most part the events they remembered were dark events.


There was the terror struck on all and sundry in Tralee and its neighbourhood by the notorious Black and Tans in 1920-1. Then the incident witnessed by the father of Mike Christopher O'Shea. Mick O'Connell, father of the later famous footballer had to come to Caherciveen from his home in Beginish Island. As the Angelus bell began to ring he removed his cap and knelt down on one knee in the street to pray the Angelus. He was approached by two members of the Black and Tans, Coffee and Allen, and ordered to say "To hell with the pope." He refused to comply. The Tans beat him mercilessly with their rifle butts and walked calmly away. 

These interviews were conducted by Maurice O'Keeffe during the past few years and in so doing he has ensured the preservation of information which otherwise would have gone to the grave. Herein are valuable snippets of information which add colour and sometimes extra detail to well known events in the narrative of the War of Independence and its aftermath.

The book, compiled by Jane O'Hea O'Keeffe to accompany the recordings, will be of interest to local historians, students of our revolutionary period and Irish people at home and abroad.

Irish Destiny DVD 
   Add to basketBasketAdd to favorites

A landmark Irish film with a exciting new Irish music score.

The first fictionalised account of the War of Independence, Irish Destiny was enthusiastically received by Irish cinema-goers but was one of only five films to be banned by the British Board of Censors in 1926.



Irish Destiny has been re-released to mark the 90th Anniversary of the Easter Rising.

Irish Destiny is one of the most significant films made in Ireland in the silent period. Produced by Isaac Eppel in 1926, the original release of Irish Destiny coincided with the 10th anniversary of the Easter Rising.

Irish composer, Micheál O'Súilleabháin has written a new score for the movie performed by the composer with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra conducted by Proinnsías Ó Duinn.

Micheál O'Súilleabháin has written a deconstructed version of the National Anthem for the score and the sound of an orchestra warming the black and white moving images creates an overall effect that is extraordinary.

The movie is a love story played against the backdrop of the War of Independence which ingeniously incorporates newsreel footage of the Black and Tans and the burning of Cork within the dramatised narrative.

For decades this Irish classic was believed to be lost but now Irish Destiny has now been restored by the Irish Film Archive to its original glory with restoration work by Lotus Films with The Bright Room and Windmill Lane Pictures. The performance on the 16th of March will coincide with the long-awaited release of the film on DVD.

When the notorious "Black and Tans" arrive at his village of Clonmore, IRA man Denis O'Hara discovers a plan to raid a secret IRA meeting, and he races to Dublin to warn his colleagues. He reaches the city, but is shot and captured by Brit soldiers. Denis is imprisoned in Kildare, but manages to escape along with his fellow prisoners. Believing him to be dead, his mother goes blind from the shock, and his girlfriend Moira is abducted by fellow villager Beecher, who is in league with the Tans. Denis arrives back in Clonmore just in time to rescue Moira. With the burning of the Customs House in Dublin, the War of Independence is soon over and a truce is reached with the Brits.
