Documentary series ‘Bhí Mé Ann’ is scheduled to begin broadcasting on RTÉ One on Thursday, 24th September.
‘Bhí mé ann’ is a unique landmark EU Peace III funded documentary series that recounts the stories of those who tried to live ordinary everyday lives throughout the conflict in the North.
Parents, Children, Husbands, Wives, Teachers, Firemen, Nurse’s and Soldiers people from all walks of life yet they have one thing in common – Bhí mé ann (I was there). People from all sides of the community have stories to tell.
The Series Director Sonia Nic Giolla Easbuig said: “This series will appeal to everyone who has a curiosity about how other people live their lives – ‘Bhí mé ann’ gives a rare insight into how the ordinary things in life were challenged for those trying to survive every day with bombs, bullets and the trauma of the Conflict hanging over them. It was a humbling experience to capture these memories and to share them with you.”
‘Bhí mé ann’ is a series which came from the Glórtha Aduaidh project and is supported by the European Union’s PEACE III Programme, and managed for the Special EU Programmes Body by Pobal.
‘Bhí mé ann’ is a LIGID TV Production in conjunction with WestBIC and in association with TG4 and RTÉ.
