New Film – “Spiorad na Samhna / Spirit of Samhain”

Hi

I would appreciate it if you would inform your members about following bi-lingual film. It can be embedded on any website.

Spiorad na Samhna — Spirit of Samhain

Film traces origins of Ireland’s biggest Halloween Carnival in Derry back to troubled years of 1980s.

It also traces origins of Halloween itself to the Celtic festival of Samhain. Dr. Jenny Butler from the Folklore Department of University College, Cork narrates this.

Film uses footage from spectacular 2013 Inferno show, produced by LUXe, based in Donegal.
