Cathair na Mílte Grian (City of a Thousand Suns) is a cinematic pilgrimage. Part poem, part elegy this film forges connections between two distant cities, Dublin and Hiroshima. Drawing on a rich legacy of world cinema to dive into our collective memory and shine a light on the trauma we all share as descendants of the atomic age.

Is tum-oilithreacht fhileata scannánaíochta í Cathair na Mílte Grian. Caoineadh is ea í a chruthaíonn ceangal idir pobail dhá chathair i bhfad ó chéile: Baile Átha Cliath agus Hiroshima. Tugann sé isteach inár gcomhchuimhne muid trí oidhreacht shaibhir an cineama dhomhanda chun an tráma atá go smior ionann go léir mar shliocht an ré núicléigh a nochtadh.
