My Ireland

My Ireland

Directed by Anthony Monaghan
/ 2019
90 minutes

Anthony Monaghan, a working-class immigrant now living in St. Louis, takes a hard look at the rampant emigration, mass evictions, and homeless crisis that plague his homeland of Ireland today. In search of answers, he travels the nation and interviews Irish people from all walks of life, from a homeless Dubliner to a member of the Irish Parliament. One thing is clear: Corruption has caused the displacement, if not the destruction, of countless lives in Ireland. Monaghan previously appeared in the Showcase with the documentary “Rednecks + Culchies.”

With a Q&A with director-subject Anthony Monaghan and editor-cinematographer Elliott Geolat.
