Killing Irish

Status: Script Awaiting Development
Logline: A re-imagining of the traditional argument over the decline of the Irish language, with a view to understanding how future revivals may succeed where others have failed.
Synopsis:
The history of any language is invariably bound up with the political history and fortunes of the people who speak it. The written story of the Irish language over the last 400 years is therefore one of colonisation and cultural dilution, laced with heroes and villains, repression and revolution and massive social, economic and political upheaval. What is often overlooked is the change in ideology towards the language by the main players, not least the Irish speakers themselves, which did as much damage as modernism and emigration. What then does this tell us about its present situation and possible future?
