The new series of “10 Things to Know About…” arrives on RTE One at 8.30pm on Monday 13th November!

Revealing secrets of the earth and stars… and blurring lines between minds and machines… Irish scientists have their fingers on the pulse…

This year, Aoibhinn, Jonathan and Kathriona are in the skies and underground, across Ireland and Europe, investigating the topics that are impacting on all our lives: the alarming rise of antimicrobial resistance and superbugs; the latest work to capture and even recreate the awesome power of the sun; the gene therapies that could provide the answer to disease in humans, plants and animals; the secrets under the earth’s surface that threaten but also sustain our way of living; the technology that could communicate thoughts; and the drones that are helping to save lives!

Aoibhinn Ní Shúilleabháin, Jonathan McCrea and Kathriona Devereux return to present series 2 of “10 Things to Know About…” and highlight exciting Irish research themed around “Staying Young”, “Virtual Reality” “Alien Invasion”, “Beef and Beer”, “Smarter Living” and “Sports Performance”

Aoibhinn travels to the gothic churches of Brittany, France where Irish researchers are investigating whether bats could hold the key to eternal youth, Kathriona looks into the science behind the perfect steak, and Jonathan heads underwater to discover how Irish engineers are helping to build and maintain our increasingly connected and smarter planet!

And Fergus McAuliffe is back with some more ‘Weird Science’ highlighting the world’s most expensive beef burger, the frightening connection between the first recorded example of doping in sports and rat poison, and why the modern Irish could well be considered aliens in their own nation…

 

 


Backlash wins second prize at ICCL Human Rights Film Festival

Backlash - Berta Still

We’re delighted to announce that our short documentary “Backlash: The War on Human Rights” won second prize at the Irish Centre for Civil Liberties Human Rights Film Festival which took place at the Lighthouse Cinema in Dublin on Thursday 30th June, 2016.

Produced in association with Front Line Defenders, the documentary looks beyond individual attacks to highlight the alarmingly concerted attack by the powerful on the very idea of human rights. All around the world, Governments are becoming far more malicious, creative and insidious in the way that they suppress critical voices and repress and discredit the work of NGOs and human rights defenders. This is increasingly happening even in countries that profess to support democracy and human rights. Unless we act now, our society faces a fundamental challenge as to what type of world we’re going to live in.

This short documentary is the start of an international communications and advocacy strategy to remind those governments who claim to support human rights of their obligations, and to confront and challenge those governments who abuse the human rights of their citizens. It is the first phase of a larger project where we are seeking to secure funding for a feature length documentary which will capture and convey the true extent of this complex issue, revealing the personal impact on those working on the ground and crucially, highlighting the true reality of the backlash against human rights all around the world.

Now in its eight year, the ICCL Human Rights Film Awards is Ireland’s only human-rights themed short film competition. Spanning a range of styles, and a mix of documentary and drama, previous entrants have dealt with a range of pressing human rights issues in Ireland and internationally, including transgender recognition, victims of crime, racism, the plight of Mediterranean migrants and threats facing frontline human rights defenders.
