Raise the Roof

Raise the Roof, a documentary on the building and opening of the Glór Irish Music Centre in Co. Clare, had its New York City premiere on February 24. Produced and directed by Patrick Farrelly and Kate O’Callaghan and set in the heartland of traditional music in the West of Ireland, Raise The Roof explores one woman’s battles against time, bureaucracy and even the musicians themselves to open a twenty first century home for Irish traditional music. ♦
