“Fair Seas: The Kingdom of Kerry” celebrates the connection between the county and the sea.
The feature, produced by Jack O’Donovan Trá , of Fair Seas Ireland, dives into the lives of those who make a living from the ocean and how coastal changes will impact the communities in years to come.
The film includes extensive footage of the Greater Skellig Coast which was named Ireland's first 'Hope Spot' by Mission Blue.
