Why Irish, Internationally

Every language carries a world inside it. We’re here to share ours.

It needs voices that sound different — stories shaped by a language that sees the world differently. Irish is one of Europe’s oldest living languages. It carries a way of seeing that can’t be translated, only felt.

We don’t make work in Irish despite the world. We make it because the world is ready to listen.

For Funders

Invest in culture that travels.

What You Fund

Original Irish-language productions with international distribution ambitions — documentary, drama, animation, and digital.

What You Get

Executive producer credit, premiere access, impact reports, and association with a prestige cultural brand.

Credibility

Supported by leading Irish-language and cultural institutions. Built by experienced producers with international track records.

For Creators

We want to hear from you.

Who We’re Looking For

First and foremost — Irish speakers. Fluent, rusty, or somewhere in between. If you have the language, we want to work with you. Beyond that: directors, writers, animators, composers, editors, sound designers, and producers with a passion for Irish-language storytelling. Emerging and established. Ireland-based and international.

What We Can Offer

  • Global connections across film, television, and digital media
  • Access to international audiences and distribution networks
  • EU funding connections and co-production partnerships

How to Apply

Just reach out. Tell us who you are, what you do, and why Irish-language media matters to you. No portfolio required — a conversation is enough to start.

Let’s Talk

We’d love to hear from you.
