The extraordinary story of how Eamon de Valera stowed away on a ship to America in 1919 and announced himself in the lobby of the world's most expensive hotel as "The First President of Ireland". In truth, de Valera was a wanted man and Ireland was still part of the British Empire. Immediately Irish America makes him a star. Then it all goes incredibly wrong. Using previously unseen archive material preserved in New York, we tell on screen for the first time the untold story of the political baptism of fire for de Valera that follows and how the trip shapes him into the politician he would become - a man who would go on to shape modern Ireland for the next fifty years. We were delighted to provide colour grading services for this Irish television production.
Tháinig Eamon de Valera ar long go Meiriceá i 1919 agus ad’fhógair é féin i stocaireacht an óstáin is daoire ar domhan mar “ChéadUachtarán na hÉireann”. I ndáiríre, bhí sé ar teitheadh ón mBreatain agus bhíÉire fós mar chuid d'Impireacht na Breataine. Láithreach, déanann MeiriceánaighÉireannach réalta dó. Ach ansin, téann gach rud mícheart.
Bhí lúcháir orainn seirbhísí grádaithe datha a chur arfáil don léiriúchán teilifíse Éireannach seo.
