Major new development for Irish Language TV drama writing……….SÍOL is a new development initiative that has assisted talented writers / directors to develop a script that will be broadcast as a part of a drama series on TG4. SÍOL has given 6 writers and six directors from the Gaeltacht or those who are fluent in Irish the opportunity to write, develop and produce a television script. The iniative is supported by the BCI, TG4, Gréasán na Meán & Údarás na Gaeltachta. Principal photography began on Monday 8th June and continued for 6 weeks until the 17th July.
