The Continental Céilí

16m Documentary 2024

Far from their usual stomping ground at Sydney’s Gaelic Club, this mongrel band of troubadours puts a new spin on Irish traditional music. Hailing from Portugal, Sweden, the wild western suburbs of Sydneyand even a token Irishman, the All-Stars bring theirmutant take on Irish trad to the Gasoline Pony for the first time. Forced to navigate the Australian cultural landscape, with its many prejudices and exclusions, these musicians have found community in their passion for Irish music.
