Michael Scott - A Changing Man

As one of Ireland's foremost 20th-century architects, Michael Scott was driven by a determination to elevate his country’s visual arts onto the world stage. A man of charm and vision, he set out to change the face of postwar Dublin, and inspired a new generation of artists and architects.

Yet Scott’s vehemently modern outlook attracted no shortage of controversy amongst mid-century Ireland’s authoritarian, Catholic establishment. Award -winning director Ciarín Scott traces her father’s flamboyant and colourful life as he struggles with family pressures, while fighting to bring visual modernity to the country he loved.
