00:01:18,500 --> 00:01:24,583
And I shall have some peace there,
for peace comes dropping slow.

(grunting)
13
00:01:36,708 --> 00:01:42,875
The restless poet William Butler Yeats
found peace in wild places.
14
00:01:46,041 --> 00:01:47,833
Like many great Irish writers,
15
00:01:47,916 --> 00:01:53,458
he felt a spiritual current
that surges through this land.
16
00:01:58,833 --> 00:02:03,625
Nowhere else does every brush with nature
feel so intense...
17
00:02:06,041 --> 00:02:09,041
...so full of life.
18
00:02:09,125 --> 00:02:11,583
(seagulls squawking)
19
00:02:16,375 --> 00:02:19,166
The poetry of Yeats, which evokes
20
00:02:19,250 --> 00:02:24,166
the essence of Ireland,
still inspires many of our writers.
21
00:02:27,958 --> 00:02:31,625
Manchan: I write in a house of mud, straw and stone
22
00:02:31,708 --> 00:02:37,250
with a roof of clay and grass,
created from the soil of Ireland.
23
00:02:38,958 --> 00:02:41,916
If I'm speaking Irish, my name is "Man-a-han."
24
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,083
If I'm speaking English, I say "Mon-con."
25
00:02:47,166 --> 00:02:49,125
Who wants a banana?
26
00:02:49,208 --> 00:02:49,994
You want a banana?
27
00:02:50,036 --> 00:02:50,783
(pigs snorting)
28
00:02:50,866 --> 00:02:52,791
(voice-over): As I tend my pigs and vegetables,
29
00:02:52,875 --> 00:02:55,750
I'm rooted in a long tradition.
30
00:02:55,833 --> 00:02:58,750
For centuries, our farmers have been coaxing
31
00:02:58,833 --> 00:03:01,708
green shoots out of this rocky soil.
32
00:03:04,750 --> 00:03:08,125
This land, this lush island of Ireland
33
00:03:08,208 --> 00:03:12,208
has always fed us and nourished our soul.

where I was born, is a kind of paradise.

41
00:04:48,833 --> 00:04:51,375
When the first history of our island was written,
42
00:04:51,458 --> 00:04:55,583
it was called "The Book of Invasions."
43
00:04:55,666 --> 00:05:01,875
Outsiders came here, attracted
by its beauty, and its rich soil.
44
00:05:05,041 --> 00:05:08,500
The Vikings came, then the Normans.
45
00:05:08,583 --> 00:05:12,041
Out of our rocky soil, we built massive fortresses
46
00:05:12,125 --> 00:05:15,000
and walls to keep us safe.
47
00:05:17,375 --> 00:05:20,750
But the invaders, they came anyway...
48
00:05:20,833 --> 00:05:23,833
Nine invasions in all.
49
00:05:27,041 --> 00:05:31,208
Some newcomers built grandiose
mansions on the best lands,
50
00:05:31,291 --> 00:05:34,166
pushing the Irish people aside.
51
00:05:36,333 --> 00:05:39,291
For centuries, we fought them in vain,
52
00:05:39,375 --> 00:05:47,000
skirmish after skirmish, until an
independence movement freed Southern Ireland.
53
00:05:51,541 --> 00:05:58,458
All the while, we longed for peace
between regions, peace between religions.
54
00:06:03,916 --> 00:06:08,747
Then, in 1998, all clashing parties signed the
55
00:06:08,789 --> 00:06:14,041
Belfast Peace Agreement,
changing Ireland forever.
56
00:06:15,625 --> 00:06:20,916
We were finally able to look to the future
with joy in our hearts.
57
00:06:22,583 --> 00:06:25,708
This was a new Ireland.
58
00:06:28,958 --> 00:06:30,958
(bird calling)
59
00:06:34,708 --> 00:06:38,958
To help the healing process,
a growing network of young Irish musicians
60
00:06:39,041 --> 00:06:43,541
from both north and south have
joined forces to spread musical harmony.
61
00:06:43,625 --> 00:06:45,166
(playing jazz)
62
00:06:45,250 --> 00:06:48,833
Their adventures will be the
focus of Manchan's next book.
63
00:06:51,625 --> 00:06:54,125
Manchan (voice-over): These kids are different.
64
00:06:54,208 --> 00:06:55,708
They have a whole new confidence.
65
00:06:55,791 --> 00:06:58,208
This is a new generation of Irish.
66
00:06:58,291 --> 00:07:00,083
It's a new Ireland.
67

(Noah groans)
68
00:07:02,791 --> 00:07:05,166
Manchan (voice-over): Rhiannon
grew up in Northern Ireland,
69
00:07:05,250 --> 00:07:07,375
which is part of the United Kingdom.
70
00:07:07,458 --> 00:07:11,000
Her parents lived through the angry years.
71
00:07:11,083 --> 00:07:14,958
The others are from the south,
the Republic of Ireland.
72
00:07:15,041 --> 00:07:18,166
Noah wants to become a rock star.
73
00:07:18,250 --> 00:07:20,416
He plays three instruments and he sings.
74
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:22,916
Noah: Ah!
75
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,625
Rhiannon: I think... I don't know where we are.
76
00:07:24,708 --> 00:07:27,833
Manchan: Osama is an example of the new Ireland.
77
00:07:27,916 --> 00:07:30,166
He's Irish Lebanese.
78
00:07:30,250 --> 00:07:32,375
He hopes to be a computer scientist.
79
00:07:32,458 --> 00:07:34,375
Molly: Osama!
80
00:07:34,458 --> 00:07:35,791
- Osama!
- Yeah!
81
00:07:35,875 --> 00:07:37,500
Manchan: And Molly is a linguist.
82
00:07:37,583 --> 00:07:39,583
She proudly speaks Gaelic.
83
00:07:39,666 --> 00:07:42,333
She wants to keep our language alive.
84
00:07:43,583 --> 00:07:49,500
Through their music, these kids
are trying to push the past aside.
85
00:07:50,916 --> 00:07:56,041
In ten days, they'll play a recital in
the North, for the President of Ireland.
86
00:07:57,041 --> 00:07:58,958
And we're all gonna head up there together
87
00:07:59,041 --> 00:08:02,083
so that I can learn more about them for my book.
88
00:08:02,166 --> 00:08:03,417
Noah: Oh, yeah.
89
00:08:03,459 --> 00:08:04,625
(chattering)
90
00:08:04,708 --> 00:08:05,958
Lovely.
91
00:08:06,041 --> 00:08:07,342
Did you say "Kildare"?
92
00:08:07,384 --> 00:08:08,177
Adare.
93
00:08:08,219 --> 00:08:09,025
Adare. A-D.
94
00:08:09,108 --> 00:08:12,458
Manchan: Their mentor, Patricia Treacy,
will help me on the trip.
95
00:08:12,541 --> 00:08:14,500
You don't need those machines.
Everything is laid out here.
96
00:08:14,583 --> 00:08:16,375
Look at that. Like, there's nothing that isn't...
97
00:08:16,458 --> 00:08:19,041
(voice-over): And for this, I'm really grateful,
98
00:08:19,125 --> 00:08:21,458
because... (chuckles) ...traveling with teenagers
99
00:08:21,541 --> 00:08:23,291
is kind of daunting for me.
100
00:08:23,375 --> 00:08:25,042
Manchan, your map's upside-down.
101
00:08:25,084 --> 00:08:25,825

102
00:08:25,908 --> 00:08:28,958
(voice-over): Our first stop
is Ireland's capital, Dublin...
103
00:08:29,041 --> 00:08:31,333
(birds chirping)
104
00:08:31,416 --> 00:08:34,750
...which has the largest urban park in Europe.
105
00:08:41,416 --> 00:08:45,125
Dublin is a sophisticated city of music,
106
00:08:45,208 --> 00:08:49,458
great gastronomic experiences and fun.
107
00:08:49,541 --> 00:08:51,416
And, you know, then you get to the urban place
108
00:08:51,500 --> 00:08:54,041
where everyone gathers, and there's this energy.
109
00:08:54,125 --> 00:08:56,791
Like, and it's no surprise that all the great music...
110
00:08:56,875 --> 00:08:59,708
(voice-over): We Irish live and breathe stories.
111
00:08:59,791 --> 00:09:02,166
Always have. They help us come to terms
112
00:09:02,250 --> 00:09:04,208
with the tragedies which once plagued us.
113
00:09:04,291 --> 00:09:04,999
Go.
114
00:09:05,041 --> 00:09:05,808
(laughs)
115
00:09:05,891 --> 00:09:06,916
Oh, you still jumped?
116
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,166
(applause)
117
00:09:08,250 --> 00:09:09,583
(voice-over): We love our writers so much
118
00:09:09,666 --> 00:09:13,375
that we even have street parties to celebrate them.
119
00:09:13,458 --> 00:09:15,375
"Alarmed face asks me."
120
00:09:15,458 --> 00:09:17,375
Manchan: Today we're dressing up in honor
121
00:09:17,458 --> 00:09:19,000
of the great James Joyce.
122
00:09:19,083 --> 00:09:21,083
"And the garters were blue to match
123
00:09:21,166 --> 00:09:22,833
on account of the transparent
124
00:09:22,916 --> 00:09:25,416
and they all saw it and shouted to...
125
00:09:25,500 --> 00:09:27,250
(gasps) look, look, there it was."
126
00:09:27,333 --> 00:09:29,333
(applause)
127
00:09:31,791 --> 00:09:33,041
Manchan (voice-over): In Dublin's center
128
00:09:33,125 --> 00:09:35,875
stands the 400-year-old university
129
00:09:35,958 --> 00:09:40,500
Trinity College,
treasure house of stories and learning.
130
00:09:43,041 --> 00:09:46,125
Just love these wonderful colors in the front.
131
00:09:46,208 --> 00:09:46,983
Spectacular.
132
00:09:47,025 --> 00:09:48,191
And, imagine, we're right in the...

(speaking indistinctly)
134
00:09:50,958 --> 00:09:53,208
(voice-over): This vast collection of books
135
00:09:53,291 --> 00:09:56,625
once represented a significant proportion
136
00:09:56,708 --> 00:10:00,666
of the entire acquired knowledge of the human race.
137
00:10:02,708 --> 00:10:06,666
In pride of place
is one of Ireland's most valued treasures,
138
00:10:06,750 --> 00:10:13,541
the Book of Kells, one of the most
precious objects in the Western world.
139
00:10:14,625 --> 00:10:20,875
It's principally the Gospels written out by
hand in the old Gaelic script by Irish monks.
140
00:10:22,041 --> 00:10:24,625
But you can see, the monks got pretty obsessed
141
00:10:24,708 --> 00:10:27,958
in decorating every inch of the pages.
142
00:10:31,333 --> 00:10:33,541

143
00:10:33,625 --> 00:10:35,875
These four teens were born

after the peace treaty was signed.
145
00:10:39,208 --> 00:10:42,000
So all of the dark, troubled years
146
00:10:42,083 --> 00:10:43,500
don't seem to weigh them down.
147
00:10:43,583 --> 00:10:46,125

00:25:49,125 --> 00:25:50,750
- in the early morning dew.
- A bit cold.
356
00:25:50,833 --> 00:25:52,625
Well, if you want, you can strip off,
357
00:25:52,708 --> 00:25:54,083
but I'm just gonna... At this hour, though,
358
00:25:54,166 --> 00:25:55,583
I'm just gonna do my face.
359
00:25:55,666 --> 00:25:56,625
So you find whatever dew
360
00:25:56,708 --> 00:25:57,750
that's been left on the grass...
361
00:25:57,833 --> 00:26:00,791
(voice-over): Ireland is alive
with an invisible presence.
362
00:26:00,875 --> 00:26:02,000
Manchan: Okay, now, rub them...
363
00:26:02,083 --> 00:26:04,208
(voice-over): A playful, healing spirit.
364
00:26:04,291 --> 00:26:06,041
And I'm hoping that a bit of that
365
00:26:06,125 --> 00:26:08,166
might rub off on the kids.
366
00:26:08,250 --> 00:26:11,875
Rhiannon (voice-over): My
skin felt amazing afterwards.
367
00:26:11,958 --> 00:26:13,416
There. You are now guaranteed
368
00:26:13,500 --> 00:26:15,083
beauty and health for the whole year.
369
00:26:15,166 --> 00:26:17,250
I already have beauty and health. Anything else?
370
00:26:17,333 --> 00:26:18,708
- (Manchan laughs)
- Money?
371
00:26:18,791 --> 00:26:20,541
Don't thank me. You're all right, you're welcome.
372
00:26:20,625 --> 00:26:21,875
Least I could do.
373
00:26:21,958 --> 00:26:23,291
(Noah laughs)
374
00:26:24,416 --> 00:26:26,583
Manchan (voice-over): I really love how the poet Yeats
375
00:26:26,666 --> 00:26:28,875
writes about Ireland.
376
00:26:28,958 --> 00:26:31,958
About its hidden magic beauty,
377
00:26:32,041 --> 00:26:36,166
its wild coastline, its mythical waterfalls.
378
00:26:36,250 --> 00:26:39,708
And the pure, warped genius
379
00:26:39,791 --> 00:26:42,208
and idealism of its people.
380
00:26:42,291 --> 00:26:46,000
Even Yeats' grave is poetic.
381
00:26:46,083 --> 00:26:49,875
"Cast a cold eye on life, on death,
horseman pass by."
382
00:26:49,958 --> 00:26:51,666
Basically, like, he saw himself as
383
00:26:51,750 --> 00:26:52,916
channeling the essence of Ireland.
384
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,708
So that was what was important, not him.
385
00:26:54,791 --> 00:26:57,958
So just ignore life, ignore death, move on by.
386
00:26:58,041 --> 00:26:59,375
So the horsemen are just us, you know.
387
00:26:59,458 --> 00:27:00,958
We're meant to just forget about it,
388
00:27:01,041 --> 00:27:02,791
which we should do, and just move on
389
00:27:02,875 --> 00:27:04,875
and find our own essence of Ireland.
390
00:27:06,666 --> 00:27:09,041
The kids are finally speaking up about
391
00:27:09,125 --> 00:27:11,750
which Irish places they want to see.
392
00:27:13,375 --> 00:27:16,916

That's it. Hold onto the bar.

the Blarney Stone, you're forever blessed
with the gift of gab.

456
00:29:21,958 --> 00:29:24,291
Manchan (voice-over): Years ago, I did a show on Irish TV
457
00:29:24,375 --> 00:29:26,416
to get us all to at least try to speak
458
00:29:26,500 --> 00:29:30,375
the Irish language, Gaelic, a little more
to keep it alive.
459
00:29:30,458 --> 00:29:32,375
(speaking Gaelic)
460
00:29:32,458 --> 00:29:34,083
I wasn't caring about my fashion.
461
00:29:34,166 --> 00:29:35,250
I was trying to make a point
462
00:29:35,333 --> 00:29:36,625
about the language, you know.
463
00:29:36,708 --> 00:29:38,708
(speaking Gaelic)
464
00:29:40,875 --> 00:29:42,250
No sprachen the...
465
00:29:42,333 --> 00:29:44,708
- "No sprachen."
- "No sprachen!"
466
00:29:44,791 --> 00:29:46,083
No sprachen the Irish.
467
00:29:46,166 --> 00:29:48,208
Manchan (voice-over): I tried, in a humorous way,
468
00:29:48,291 --> 00:29:52,166
to show that our Gaelic language may be dying.
469
00:29:52,250 --> 00:29:54,916
Our native tongue carries ancient codes
470
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,166
of who we are.
471
00:29:58,250 --> 00:30:00,750
In Galway, we stop to listen to a man
472
00:30:00,833 --> 00:30:04,125
who is committed to saving the Gaelic language:
473
00:30:04,208 --> 00:30:08,000
our president, Michael D. Higgins.
474
00:30:08,083 --> 00:30:10,416
It's a treat for the kids to hear him speak,
475
00:30:10,500 --> 00:30:12,541
as they'll play a concert for him later.
476
00:30:12,625 --> 00:30:16,333
(man speaking Gaelic)
477
00:30:27,791 --> 00:30:29,625
Manchan: Gaelic stories are treasures
478
00:30:29,708 --> 00:30:33,041
that help heal our troubled past.
479
00:30:36,708 --> 00:30:38,250
As we head north, we'll be crossing
480
00:30:38,333 --> 00:30:42,916
the invisible border that splits the island
into two parts.
481
00:30:47,833 --> 00:30:53,083

we enter Northern Ireland.

For Rhiannon, this is home.
485
00:31:30,666 --> 00:31:34,250
Rhiannon (voice-over): I wanted
to bring everyone to a rope bridge.
486
00:31:34,333 --> 00:31:37,541
It was built long ago by a fisherman.
487
00:31:37,625 --> 00:31:40,833
Manchan: Hold on for dear life.
488
00:31:40,916 --> 00:31:42,833
I don't know about you, Rhiannon,
but I'm not liking this.

I'm not liking it one bit.
492

Narrator: The fisherman who built the bridge
493
00:31:51,166 --> 00:31:55,625
did so to store his boat in a safe spot.
494
00:31:55,708 --> 00:32:00,916
Sometimes, the way ahead is precarious,
but we go anyway.

Manchan: ♪ The mist rollin' over the sea... ♪
499
00:32:14,916 --> 00:32:16,500
(voice-over): The Giant's Causeway is said
500
00:32:16,583 --> 00:32:18,666
to have been built by our greatest hero,
501
00:32:18,750 --> 00:32:22,875
Fionn Mac Cumhaill, to protect us from an evil giant.
502
00:32:26,458 --> 00:32:29,666
Rhiannon: Our guide tells a different explanation.
503
00:32:29,750 --> 00:32:32,375
Jennifer explains that
the basalt rock formations
504
00:32:32,458 --> 00:32:37,958
were created by volcanic eruptions
about 60 million years ago.
505
00:32:38,041 --> 00:32:41,875
Jennifer: These eruptions erupted into a lava lake.
506
00:32:41,958 --> 00:32:45,291
So imagine it's contracting as it cools.
507
00:32:45,375 --> 00:32:48,041
And because it's a homogeneous composition,
508
00:32:48,125 --> 00:32:52,041
as it contracts, it forms these 90-degree angles.
509
00:32:52,125 --> 00:32:53,166
So you can probably see them here.
510
00:32:53,250 --> 00:32:55,250
- Yeah.
- It either formed a six-sided shape,
511
00:32:55,333 --> 00:32:57,041
a five-sided shape, or I think there's some
512
00:32:57,125 --> 00:32:58,375
seven- and eight-sided shapes.
513
00:32:58,458 --> 00:32:59,375
Noah: The slower it cools,
514
00:32:59,458 --> 00:33:00,833
the more hexagonal the shape of it.
515
00:33:00,916 --> 00:33:04,333
Jennifer: Yeah, the more time it has,
and form its shapes.
516
00:33:04,416 --> 00:33:06,583
Osama (voice-over): Jennifer said there are about
517
00:33:06,666 --> 00:33:10,083
40,000 of these basalt columns.
518
00:33:10,166 --> 00:33:12,333

You're gonna have to just go for it. (chuckles)

Now, Osama. Now, now, now!

Quick, quick, quick. Go, go, go.

Yay!

00:33:21,666 --> 00:33:22,791
I am shocked.
524
00:33:24,625 --> 00:33:26,625
Manchan: In the past, we used our mythology
525
00:33:26,708 --> 00:33:30,375
to explain things that we didn't fully understand.

527
00:33:32,958 --> 00:33:36,083
Ancient stories help make sense of life.
528
00:33:37,791 --> 00:33:41,416
Music and song can do that, too.

a wall was built through Belfast city
