The film which interweaves Admiral Brown’s story with that of Foxford native, the late J.J. O’Hara, who did more than anyone to elevate the profile of Admiral Brown in Ireland, and developed links between Mayo and Argentina.
Writer/producer, Bill Tyson and cameraman Declan Cassidy of Timesnap Productions spent four months in Buenos Aires researching the film, and uncovered new additional material in the Argentine archives.
Film footage was shot in location in Foxford and Galway, while funding for the completion of the documentary was provided by the Admiral Brown Society, Foxford and Mhuintir Mhaigheo na Gailimhe, (the Galway Mayo Association). DVDs of the documentary will be available for purchase locally.
