Na Caoinagh


Na Caonaigh (meaning the mosses in irish) is a short documentary film, highlighting the importance and unique characteristics of Bryophytes, with a focus on Moss. The film covers the evolutionary history of the Bryophytes, a typical life cycle in first person and finally touches on the risks this group may face in a warming climate. 


Shot in the Devil's Glen area on the east coast of Ireland, Na Caonaigh is a collaborative effort helmed by multidisciplinary artist, Orlando FitzGerald and ecologist Tim Nairn.


The film was shot by fine art photographer, Cáit Fahey and edited by Enda Rowan. The artist Oisin Byrne acted as a creative consultant and the film was narrated by Tim Nairn and Gemma Dunleavy.


Additionally, the music and sound were created by Orlando FitzGerald.
