Mothers of Modern Ireland

With a tip of the hat to Laurel for posting this on the Gaelic Polytheism group on FB:
'Mothers of Modern Ireland: A People's History' is a landmark film oral archive of Irish grandmothers now available online. 
Over the past five years, independent filmmakers have been recording the oral histories of 32 grandmothers from across Ireland. They have now assembled a landmark film archive which can be viewed at mothersofmodernireland.com.

The website's easy to navigate and the videos cover a number of subject like cures, ghost stories, sex, death, and emigration and immigration. I've only viewed a couple but there's some interesting stuff there. The direct link is:
