IRISH FOLK FURNITURE

IRISH FOLK FURNITURE

Irish Folk Furniture is an animated documentary about repair and recycling in rural Ireland. As old hand painted furniture is often associated with hard times, with poverty and with a time many would rather forget, much of the country’s furniture heritage lies rotting in barns and sheds. In the making of this film 16 pieces of abandoned folk furniture were restored and returned back into daily use.
