About ‘Mo Scéal Féin’
‘Mo Scéal Féin’ is a new Irish language children’s television series that puts the voices and passions of young people centre stage. Funded by the Irish Language Broadcast Fund (ILBF) and produced by Ronin Films for Cúla4, the five part series invites viewers to follow young people from across Ireland as they explore the worlds that fascinate them most from wildlife and fashion to technology and teamwork.
Each 13-minute episode follows a different young person or group of friends on a personal journey of exploration, insight, and fun. Designed for viewers aged 8–13, the series combines engaging storytelling with strong Irish-language content, encouraging creativity, community spirit, and a love of Gaeilge. Perfect for families and schools, ‘Mo Scéal Féin’ inspires children to follow their passions and explore the world around them in their own words and in their own language.

“Mo Scéal Féin is a beautiful celebration of individuality, creativity, and community and it reflects everything we value at Cúla4. We are so proud to bring young people’s voices and stories to the screen in a way that feels authentic, fun, and deeply rooted in Gaeilge. The enthusiasm and imagination shown by everyone involved is truly inspiring, and we hope this series encourages even more children to tell their own stories, in their own words.”
Áine Walsh, Chief Language & Cultural Officer & Head of ILBF at Northern Ireland Screen said:
“We’re delighted to support this lovely series that offers viewers a window into what young Gaeilgeoirí get up to in their free time. Reflecting their passions and views, from sustainable fashion to sheepdog training, bears to birdwatching and even a digital detox, Mo Scéal Féin is bound to inspire other young people to be curious and adventurous.”
Ronan McCloskey from Ronin Films:
“We’re delighted to have been involved in producing Mo Scéal Féin which were made in collaboration with the young people themselves. This is a key demographic for the Irish language and the young people we featured are part of an amazing generation themselves keen to tell their stories through their native language. We hope to make many more of these programmes in the future.”
