Sailm nan Daoine

This screening of Sailm nan Daonie (Psalms of the People) will be followed by a special psalm singing workshop in the First Floor Creative Learning Space at 12:45pm, led by Rob MacNeacail, giving audiences the chance to participate in the collective power of psalm singing.

Rob MacNeacail embarks on a road trip across Scotland and Ireland to explore the tradition of Gaelic psalm singing. An entertaining and heart-warming film about the power of community, family and the resilience needed to keep a language alive.

Spoken part in English, part in Gaelic, Sailm nan Daoine offers a fresh take on the thousand-year-old tradition as musician and sound designer Rob MacNeacail embarks on a personal and communal road trip as both documentary participant and narrator across Scotland and Ireland.
