A Note for Nature is both a love song to wild Ireland and a cry for help – a coming together of nature documentary, music, and spoken word in this time of climate crisis.
A Note for Nature is a celebration of wild Ireland and a call to arms. Over an hour we meet some remarkable people dedicating their lives to protect Ireland’s disappearing nature. And through music from the RTÉ Concert Orchestra and stunning location performances from stellar musicians, we feature some of Ireland’s most fragile wild places and the beleaguered animals that, somehow, manage to survive there. Christy Moore, Clare Sands & Susan O’Neill, Alannah Thornburgh, Niamh Regan, Maria Doyle Kennedy, Iarla Ó Lionáird, This is How We Fly and Tolü Makay perform powerful pieces that connect with the wonders of Ireland’s wild world.
But our planet is in trouble and in this film, a host of our leading conservationists including Jane Stout, Pádraic Fogarty and Seán Ronayne reveal that Ireland is one of the most nature depleted countries in the world and propose what we can do about it. Organic farmer Sinéad Moran and nature writers Easkey Britton and Dara McAnulty give their unique insights into a very uncertain future. From the eerie silence of summer skies bereft of insects and bird life, to the boundless potential of rewilding, from the profound impacts of industrial farming to the new wave of individuals going against the grain, this film explores the highs and lows of nature in Ireland.
