A moving and lyrical memoir about life, love and loss, from a true
giant of Gaelic games. In a frenetic seven-year spell at the outset
of his senior managerial career, Mickey Harte led Tyrone to four
Ulster Championships and three All-Irelands. It was a run that
shifted football's balance of power, changed the way the game would
be played for over a generation, and cemented his reputation as one
of the most transformative figures in GAA history. Then, in January
2011, the visitation of a shocking tragedy changed everything:
Mickey's daughter Michaela was murdered while on honeymoon in
Mauritius, and the Harte family, grief-stricken, awoke to find
themselves at the centre of an international news story. Devotion,
the product of a collaboration between Mickey and author Brendan
Coffey, is many things. The story of a family's decade-long
struggle to come to terms with an almost unimaginable loss. A
meditation on the ways in which faith, community, and sport can
sustain us in our most difficult moments. And, finally, a portrait
of one of Irish sport's true icons, as he brings one legendary era
to a close and steels himself for a final assault on the history
books

Award-winning documentary about ex-Cream and Blind Faith drummer,
Ginger Baker. Over his tumultuous career in the music industry,
Baker has lost as much as he has gained. Credited with introducing
African beats and world music to Western audiences, he has become
one of the most influential musicians of all time due to an
unparalleled ability on the drums. Writer and filmmaker Jay Bulger
speaks to the man himself and is granted access to the 80-acre
property in the South African compound he now shares with his
present wife. He also speaks to Baker's ex-wives, his children and
many of the musicians he has worked with and influenced over the
years, gaining an insight into the legend of a man as much hated as
he is loved.
