Hello, Hinterland followers! The incredible sean nos singer Amelia Hogan is having a record release concert/event at Casements Bar (literally one the best Irish bars I have ever been in outside of Dublin) and if you are in the bay area, you should come. I'm thinking of this as the best kick-off to March: listening to Amelia sing is my idea of the perfect way to kick off a the season of green. Plus, the space is outside and spacious! Come on down.

Young Plato - the award-winning feature documentary, directed by Neasa Ni Chianáin and Declan McGrath, and produced in Kells, County Meath, Ireland opens this Friday October 21 in AMC Metreon 16 Cinema in San Francisco.

This powerful, poignant, and very funny story of how an Elvis Presley-loving primary school headmaster changes the way his young pupils think about violence, by using philosophy and critical thinking, has swept 9 film awards across Europe and been screened at over 40 festivals worldwide.

Now, for one week only, San Francisco folks can see the film on the big screen. Don’t miss it!
