An Misean sa tSín is a short multilingual documentary series looking at four decades of Irish catholic missionary activity in China. From 1920 to 1954, hundreds of Irish men and women served as Roman Catholic missionaries working in social, pastoral and disaster relief services at an extraordinarily turbulent but fascinating period of Chinese history.
The programmes will be screened by TG4 on Monday evenings at 19.30 over four weeks beginning 13th March 2017.
