their asylum claims. Writer/Director Ben Sharrock will be joining
us for a Q&A.
Screening on 14 July, The Witches of
the Orient is a fascinating documentary about the
supernaturally talented Japanese women’s volleyball team who
began at an Osaka textile factory and rose to become
international icons and triumph at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. The
screening will be followed by a pre-recorded Q&A.

Small
though Ireland may be, the island is home to six gorgeous national
parks. From ancient bogland to native forestry and unique geological
landscapes, Irish national parks protect some of Ireland's most
precious outdoor spaces.
Our national parks provide havens to flora and fauna, like the red
deer of Killarney, the rare wildflowers of the Burren, the ancient
bogs of Connemara or the golden eagles in Glenveagh. Going beyond
that, our parks also help protect the heritage within their borders,
such as the 5,000 year old tombs in the Burren, the beautiful estate
in Killarney, the Gaeltacht regions of Connemara or the lakside
castle in Glenveagh.
Want to know
more? Weve put together a few guides to some of Ireland's national
parks below. Or instead, take a look at our latest blog posts.
