听In this docu-drama, Maolra Seoighe鈥檚 story is unearthed through expert analysis, dramatic reconstructions based on newly unearthed historical documents, and insights from the descendants of the Joyces of Maamtrasna. Maolra Seoighe, a man who is believed to have been hanged unjustly 130 years ago, was originally from Maamtrasna.听 Maolra was a father, a husband, a farmer and an Irish language speaker, and it is said to have been his use of his native tongue that was largely at fault for his hanging at the end of the day.

In the middle of a dark night in 1882, almost all of a Joyce family were murdered in Joyce country, a remote rural area on the border between County Galway and Mayo.听 Ten people were charged with this crime, one of those was Maolra Seoighe.听 Maolra was one of three who were hanged for the murders. Maolra was sentenced to death, with the judge, the jury and the barrister speaking only English and charged with sentencing Maolra Seoighe, a man who didn鈥檛 understand a word of the English language.

听Key figures from the world of politics in Ireland and England can be heard in this programme describing a new campaign to re-open Maolra Seoighe鈥檚 case.
