Climate change arrives on Ireland's own coastline in this discussion-driven documentary, which asks what rising seas and shifting weather actually mean for a small island nation rather than the planet in the abstract. Irish scientists, policy figures, and coastal residents speak to how warming oceans, erosion, and extreme weather are already reshaping farmland, fishing, and low-lying towns around the country. The film moves between studio-style discussion and footage of the Irish coast, using local flooding and erosion as concrete evidence rather than relying on global statistics alone. It weighs Ireland's particular vulnerabilities, its dependence on agriculture and fisheries, against the country's small size and limited influence on global emissions, and asks what obligation follows from that mismatch. The tone stays measured and explanatory rather than alarmist, aiming to make an international crisis legible at a national scale. It closes without easy reassurance, leaving the scale of the problem, and Ireland's narrow room to act on it, as the film's final note.
