Blas: Gearóid Ó Cairealláin 1957-2024

The late Gearóid Ó Cairealláin was one of the leading figures of the Irish language revival in Belfast - a writer, journalist, actor and activist whose passion and vision was unmatched. We hear from Gearóid's eldest son, Ainle; his wife, Bríd Ó Gallchóir; and some of his friends and colleagues: Eoghan Ó Néill, Áine Nic Gearailt, Fergus Ó hÍr, Dónall Mac Giolla Chóill, and Tomaí Ó Conghaile. We also hear Gearóid himself, in archive from I Lár An Aonaigh (2014, Below The Radar for BBC Gaeilge) Gaeil Bhéal Feirste (BBC, 1992) Litreacha (BBC, 2022) and Beo go Deo (Raidió Fáilte).
