Content objective:
This resource should enable a child to:

  • acquire insights into the attitudes and actions of people in contemporary Ireland
  • explore, discuss, compare and develop some simple understanding of the attitudes, beliefs, motivations and actions of differing individuals and groups of people in the past

Suggestions for use: Show this to the class after they have read about the Rising. Notice the clothing. Get them to think about what the attitude was of ordinary Dubliners to the Rising. Is it obvious from this film?
