(IN PRODUCTION)
DIRECTED BY GAVIN FITZGERALD
The powerful and ultra competitive world of ‘currach racing’, a historic racing league, is contested on the wild and rugged Atlantic coast of Ireland. Amidst gruelling regattas, we follow the stories of an Irish speaking community who are rowing for more than medals and bragging rights.

SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability was an important consideration throughout the production of Anam Na Mara. Wherever possible, we made practical decisions to reduce the environmental impact of the production, including working with local crew and suppliers, planning efficient shooting schedules and minimising unnecessary travel.
Throughout production and post-production, we also prioritised digital workflows to reduce printing, physical deliveries and waste wherever possible.
We recognise that filmmaking has an environmental impact and believe sustainability is an ongoing responsibility. As a company, we are committed to continually reviewing and improving our production practices, ensuring environmental considerations remain integral to how we develop and produce our films.
