The Irish Pub - Alex Fegan [DVD]

Documentary directed by Alex Fegan about traditional Irish pubs and the publicans who run them. Travelling all over the country, from County Donegal to County Cork, Fegan speaks to a number of tavern owners and their customers about the long tradition of the Irish pub and its importance to local communities. Customarily being passed on from generation to generation, the pub has become an integral part of Irish society with some acting as post offices and grocers as well as a regular watering hole. While reflecting on days gone by, the owners and customers also give their thoughts on whether the pub can continue to withstand the test of time and present economic uncertainty.
