Isteach chun an oileáin (into the island) Inisboffin Co.Donegal

- Jointly funded and commissioned by the Irish Language Broadast Fund and BBC Northern Ireland, Isteach chun an Oileáin was filmed over two years by Westway Films and it tells the story of the islanders’ struggle to rebuild a community that was effectively wiped out in the 1970s. At that time the pressures of modern living, the demise of fishing stocks and the lack of proper docking facilities, the need for employment and education opportunities, not to mention the sheer physical demands of island life, all contrived to drive people off Inishbofin to seek a somewhat more manageable life on the mainland.

What a beautiful Island with beautiful people. I stayed on the Island one Summer for 4 months... I loved every minute of it... Hopefully one day I can return. God bless them all...
Excellent Documentary showing the hardships the people of this small Island Face in their Quest for survival,
The Irish Government should without delay help these True Indigenous People get and provide proper landing facilities so that
they can preserve a way of life lost to many other Islanders as a result of not having the right voice in the EU despite having a Representative there from Donegal for many years,
God Knows if such a beautiful place like this existed on the east coast or near to Dublin they would have everything they wanted.
Dont let the People down the way De, Valera did to the People of the Baskets and many other Islands on the West Coast in the Fifties when they were not supplied with a motor boat or even an outboard engine to help ease their hardship,
well said !!!
Thanks for sharing this. My grandmother was born and raised on Inishbofin (a McGee), leaving in 1909 to settle in Philadelphia.
Im learning Irish, why I'm watching. I just love what the woman was saying at 7:35, "It was difficult work, but if you're interested in it, no work is difficult." Wow, that really speaks to me.
You should check out the other videos on my channel then, most are in Irish as well.
@@donnchadhmcginley thank you for sharing this, to her note... I TOO am learning and really desire to hear more!! Thank you.. my grandmother was from origin of donegal.. yet sadly into américa, the language of irish, stopped..now, it is my turn to bring it here it family, even if I am the only on... god bless you!
Makes me lonely for my home in Donegal......an exile in Canada.
@@Barklord did move to Donegal? It's very different to the US.
Hardworking Donegal folks, who also keep their language alive, long live Erin, respect n peace
The late barney McKenna said about the corncrake it has 2 notes and 1 of them is flat , an absolutely wonderful video of true Irish life at its most purest
Wonderful tongue and splendid Accent 🍻
Wonderful video. Enjoyed see the island and learning about the about the people living there. Glad to see Roseann speak to it.
i pray this island gains more people over time....it can be done!
I get a strange feeling watching this like a feeling of where I belong. As if it's where I've always been although I've never been. I feel it looks like home.
Then, somehow, it is for you, Brian. I strongly believe in these feelings that many of us get, but don’t talk about. Good for you.
What a beautiful ancient language is Gaelic.
no they're speaking irish, not gaelic.
I totally agree :)
@@rebeccalane8002 It's called Gaeilge , as Gaeilge...... 'Irish' is an English word
@@rebeccalane8002 oh that's cool, we don't want to be lumped with you either 🙃
@@cassius092 oh great, perfectly convenient.
Dude that story about the couple who drowned...that is tragic. The other one too. That one person who survived-God must've had more work for them to do.
A small prediction, made with no expertise, other than my strong Irish heritage, and common sense. This is a beautiful, if slightly harsh, island. It has few inhabitants year round, but a deep history of a heartfelt connection to the sea, and a way of life that brings solace and yearning to many hearts. Many will discover its lure, a pier will be built, and the people will come. Some with history here, some with none. But they will come. New money and old will find its way because the island holds dreams as its heritage and a way of life that cannot be bought at any price. It is why the older inhabitants are pulled back, irresistibly, and, although outsiders may not be able to experience that pull, they will know it when they see it.
Surely we can all understand Mici’s transformation at being on his beloved island. The sea is in his very bones. He is strong and vibrant when home.
If no Gov., help is a available how about a Go Fund Me Appeal !!!! World Wide.!!
What has happened over the past seven years, I wonder? Ireland has begun to be successful in many ways over the past few decades. I can’t believe that this island won’t become a place people,will want to be, and that they won’t begin to try to exploit its beauty.
Faraor níor scríobhadh an teideal i nGaeilge cheart.
Bho Alba, tha e alain agus breagha,sith sith sith,tir conail gu brath,
Have the islanders had a new pier yet ?
Yes they got a new pier, you can see it this video ua-cam.com/video/Iv20jeJLa5c/v-deo.html
Craggy Island lives on!
or An hOilean Ghráigaí !!
Unfunny Anti-Irish and anti-Catholic crap. That Vatican II Catholic parody has nothing to do with real Irish.
an raibh siad ábalta an ché a thógáil?
chóirigh siad an ché de cupla bliain o shin. ua-cam.com/video/KcuxN8_dbks/v-deo.html
Why do these independent people want the government to do everything for them .If you live on an island there are resources all around you. Can they not be co operational and start the pier with there own resources?
do you have roads? did you build them yourself? are there not resources all round you also?
Pal most of the original islanders are in their fucking 80s how do you expect them to get out there and start laying concrete
The movement of young people out of rural areas is collapsing rural economies and erasing entire ways of life. Better (and cheaper) to buy them a pier and help them build a stronger local economy before, like Italy, they have to pay foreigners to come and renovate their crumbling, abandoned rural towns or lose them entirely.
I agree but I've heard in some countries when small communities like this try to fix their own community, and the government finds out people are doing it without government approval, oftentimes they will send in people to stop the communities from doing said fixes (which of course is more expensive than just helping them build the pier but governments aren't always logical..)
why carry everything by hand? strong back weak mind? life's hard enough. can someone please introduce the hand truck or wheelbarrow to them.
