 On Thursday 21st January, UCC Historical Society will host a screening of the acclaimed 2006 film The Wind that Shakes the Barley. The screening will be from 6.00-8.00pm in Boole 2, University College Cork and will be followed by a lecture by Dr. Donal Ó Drisceoil from 8.00-9.00pm entitled “Framing the Irish Revolution: The Wind that Shakes the Barley”. All are welcome to attend either or both events. Donal Ó Drisceoil is a lecturer in the Department of History, UCC and was the historical advisor on the Film.
