Summary Ardal joins a group of Irish Travellers for a rare visit inside one of their houses and pulls back the curtain on the lives and language of one of Ireland's oldest and least understood groups of people. As his searches for what makes the Irish - well Irish - he uncovers a new generation embracing the traditions of the past; joins the painting of a post box from green to red and green again to symbolise the 1916 uprising. A meeting with the mothers of young hurlers reveals how and why the sport, like horse racing, is engrained in the Irish psyche. Ardal's journey concludes at one of Ireland's most mysterious locations, a sous terrain and huge crater where Ardal is forced to confront his own sense of identity.
