A rather charming New York story by Mark Cersosimo and Kelsey Holtaway:

On an unseasonably warm November night in Manhattan on our way to get ice cream, we stumbled upon what appeared to be a vintage shop, brightly lit display window and all. As we began to walk in, a man sitting out front warned us that we were welcome to explore, but nothing inside was for sale. Our interests piqued, we began to browse through the collections the man out front had built throughout his life. This is a story of a man and his home.

Minister Noonan claims it’s a “Lifestyle Choice” for Irish people to emigrate rather than the reality that it’s a forced Economic Decision for most families who until recent times had no plans to emigrate. Enda Kenny promised to tackle the emigration issue just prior to gaining power. This short documentary was shown recently at University of Western Australia for a seminar on recent emigration.
