We Are Dublin

[@sjswords]

Nice work. As a Dubliner born and bred, you're all most welcome to my city, it's yours now too. Be kind to it.

[@HellAndy1983]

12 years I had been living there, miss dublin, Ireland sooooo much!!!

[@shanehughes6830]

I've been to London, New York, Paris etc ... but none have come close to Dublin. Sure they've more skyscrapers, more high speed transport and more hotels, but Dublin stands its ground. Its population and economy are growing fast, it has modernised so much since the 1990s. It has become the silicon valley of Europe. A technological economy with a great arts culture and sublime nightlife. Dublin represents everything a major city should, multi-cultured, modern, fast moving yet still friendly and laid back enough to let you live! I'm very happy to call myself Irish and a student of TCD Dublin.

[@gerrycooley]

Love it..Gerry Cooley.Dublin Author, Historian and Tour Guide....well done...

[@robertosobreira1665]

Dublin the best city around the world. I Love it!!!

[@Ciaradexy]

Tourists come to Dublin for Irish culture and the culture of Dublin therefore, its the Dubs who are Dublin and who make Dublin, not the foreign residents.

[@honoochan]

great documentary, all the people in it sounds very interesting.

[@IH1604]

Great video of a young, vibrant and cosmopolitan city with exceptional charm! Dublin can easily keep up with London, Paris, Rome and Vienna! So she has undoubtedly more than two pairs of shoes in her closet!

[@TIECSinDublin]

Amazing job - thank you, Director!

[@jean-charlesaccart306]

J'ai vraiment bien aimé! Félicitations et à bientôt pour d'autres "récidives"!

[@redmondg2009]

What a great win congrats. Good luck with your future endeavors and the music was a perfect choice. Sláinte agus Táinte

[@RochelleLazaro]

Beautiful intro & outro. Your shots are superb. Love the background music you used as well, it fitted the video quite well. :)

[@JeffsBestHemp]

Fantastic

[@yogeshtejareddy]

This video has touched my heart !

[@kelsanggoede6546]

Great job man ! Really love this city !

[@bastooo3]

Really well made doc! Interesting style ;) Perfect (except for the soundtrack ;) ) See you in Dublin

[@Ciaradexy]

As a tour guide in the city I beg to differ. They come for the pubs, museums, art galleries, to see where Oscar Wilde was born, to see the city Joyce wrote Dubliners about, to hear about the Easter Rising, to visit the graves of Irish patriots in Glasnevin Cemetery and Arbour Hill. They come for trad music, irish dancing, the craic, the city parks, theatre and what makes us unique in the world.

[@jackquinn8072]

Inspirational! Nice to see some positive vibes for a change. Nice work. Esp liked Aidan Kelly's segment.

[@JennyMayFinn]

We are all humans living amongst each other. Whether we are born in the city or not it is the residents of the city that make it. Expatriates are not tourists.

[@eugeneoneill2010]

dublin is dublin keeps dublin and dublin, forever and ever ,will not slow up

[@petrisavero4382]

I Love Irland and Dublin. Can't wait to return :) Nice vid.

[@COMB0RICO]

I really liked how you did the interview audio overlaying on an independant shot of subject. The people reacted really lively. I don't think you could get as interesting an reaction from us Americans.

[@ComputerCoderGuy]

"I really like summertime in Dublin... It's the best 2 days of the year"

[@Dobfilm]

Imagine a city with only one culture would you go there (no) Great Work nice Edit

[@CruellaVonS]

nice video! :) i'm finnaly comming to dublin, this year, and during the st.patrick's festival (yeeeeeeeeeeeeey!!!!).. can you reccomend some not so expensive bed and breakfast/guesthouse type accomodation? and what about some places i definitely need to visit (the most popular local pubs, museums, concert halls, ect.)?? i would really appreciate it. thnx !! :)

[@Laneyh]

Tourists come to Dublin as the capital of Ireland. They make a beeline for the Guinness Storehouse - which is owned by Diageo a British company. Their next port of call is Temple Bar which is about as Irish as tequila. The point of this film is that the residents of any city make the city. It is a view of the city from the inside - not the outside so I that case tourists are actually irrelevant to the story anyway

[@annarantes]

Just love it! It could be me talking about my own experience wt the fair city!

[@ahmedalmoaber8952]

Buddy.. I love the music editing on this clip... There's something about musical/documentary clips that inspire me

[@jean-baptisteherold5525]

I love it buddy. It s beautiful.

[@ClaraBaezM]

Love

[@MrKooljameel]

Clara Baez Morandi how r u

[@microbroadcast]

Really nice video, looks beautiful (guess HDSLR?), nicely edited. Seems to have a focus on Trinity students, IT specialists and mostly young people. However, if part of a series then it would work well. Thought that the Rothar segment was the most interesting. Great work.

[@mariamorenojimenez8786]

Nice Documentary!!!Wissame you forgot me!!jejeje

[@giddygiddy85]

i like how the cycling girl reinvented the company she found (in 08-or 09) she's not really sure but thats how she presents herself, but nice touch getting involved in re-cycling it makes sense.wait she should have called her company RE-CYCLING copyright @giddygiddy85

[@djguy100]

Whats the song at the very beginning?

[@dermodea764]

The people that are born and bred will make any city or town their own, its like that anywhere in the world for eg Glasgow,Barcelona,Madrid to Warsaw. If I go to any place I am a guest in THEIR city and I respect that. So if your here or there just accept that.

[@shamrockgerry]

but never forget the native dubliners....the real dubs..of dublin. born and bred

[@InternationalTravelChannel]

very nice video!

[@everdingen94]

What is the name of the song in the beginning?

[@edubrooke2753]

Draude- Sandstrom

[@saracastillo3315]

what is the song´s name ?

[@Laneyh]

That's brilliant but as a tour guide you will also know that The Guinness Storehouse is one of Ireland's top tourist destinations. This is a well documented fact. You have still missed the point of the film which is not talking about tourists but rather residents of the city.

[@Ciaradexy]

You can call me whatever you want but as a tour guide in Dublin and Connemara, I can assure you that tourists come here for the 'Dublin-isms' and many American tourists and British tourists who have been coming here for over 20 years wont be coming back due to the fact their are so many migrants here which takes away from the unique culture and atmosphere of the city. We are now becoming just like most other cities in Europe which are losing their uniqueness and what makes them special.

[@dinalacat3539]

Ciara can you explain me how a ''x'' tourist can make the difference between another tourist and a migrant ?

[@CrayonPhysiks]

1 and 1/2 million? i thought only half a million

[@johnnytechnosk]

so someone from Kerry living in Dublin for 20 years does not make Dublin does it ?

[@moisesosio86]

whats the name of the song???

[@esperanzaperez1972]

Es muy interesante

[@Laneyh]

You may have a point in relation to certain aspects of the hospitality industry but if tourists / anyone is coming here expecting to find Paddyland they will be sorely disappointed. I for one don't wish to be reduced to a stereotype to boost tourism. If they can't appreciate the scenery and genuine culture that exists here they should probably wise up a bit before their next holiday

[@scotsirish1970]

is there any feckin irish people left in dublin? this looks like london!

[@stoney7145]

+Jason McCoy People from rural ireland have a hard time considering dublin irish even before immigrants started coming.This video is about new comers to ireland so it gives a false impression.However 25% of dublin would be immigrants.Its our only big city for example our second city is cork with around 120 000 and other cities are about the same. such as limerick or galway so dublin with 1.2million is the biggest commercial hub of the country .probably at least a third of the people of dublin are from rural areas are non national,because most of the jobs are in dublin.

[@scotsirish1970]

my family is from galway and limerick we left a long time ago...to the states, i go back every five years or so just to get some culture,thankyou for your insight! slainte'

[@stoney7145]

Jason McCoy Galway limerick and other western counties usually have the most emmigration.So people of irish descent there ancestors will have descended mostly from the western part of ireland or the bulk of them

[@gloin10]

+Jason McCoy Currently, about 20% of the Irish population is foreign born. The locals have dealt with this mostly by marrying them. There are plenty of "...feckin irish people left in dublin", and they speak with Irish/Dublin accents. The fact that they might have a slightly darker skin tone is neither here nor there. One of our best Gaelic football players is half Fijian, for your information.....

[@maxvikstrom9350]

Lots of swedish people i guess they all work for google?

[@missimccarthy8408]

max vikstrom - Microsoft employ many Scandinavians too due to having the native languages required

[@irishelk3]

Is everyone half something?

[@briankelly85]

mutts!

[@Laneyh]

Calling her a racist is a bit strong, xenophobic maybe. I think its more misplaced pride though. Also, she has missed the point of the video there are already hundreds of hours of footage of tourist views on Ireland - obviously this is about people's every day experience of living in Dublin.

[@bridar5205]

River Liffey Dublin City . You ( (Tube ) GB PUBLISHED BY FIRST TIME MUSIC ENGLAND

[@annsauvage7066]

They no nothing not one word of Irish history

[@Ciaradexy]

Parisians/French make Paris, Romans/Italians make Rome, Dubs/Irish make Dublin. Its just common sense, not racism or xenophobia so please, put those cards away.

[@RedGodzilla-zq7hf]

Go on the dubs (its where im from)

[@JAYELECTRO09]

Maybe try meeting some real Dublin people before you make you're remarks about us,we are a multi-cultural city with great people. Maybe you have never got the chance to leave your town.

[@Ciaradexy]

All Paddys do.

[@annsauvage7066]

No original Irish people in this video none

[@Fayem0nd]

Haha at 2.08 half Welch?. FAIL!

[@choruscellar8635]

+Colin Foley .. 2:08 ..!

[@dinalacat3539]

Ciara looks nationalist more than racist on that point

[@Laneyh]

What has the video you've just watched got to do with tourists? You can put the tour guide card away it's irrelevant. Maybe you didn't watch the video through, the German lady in the video commented on the fact that Dublin had changed this was inevitable.Our culture is not being eroded by foreigners, rather changing. Do most kids under 18 speak like Americans because of migrants? Doubtful. Popular culture is responsible there.

[@gdixonyoutuification]

dublin - the real dublin - doesn't exist anymore...

[@annobrien8942]

It does exist. You just have to look past all the new ugly construction and the noise, and crowds, and the junk that is for sale, and when you look hard enough, at the quiet special places and the gentle, sweet, kind, loving, funny people-the real Dubliners, that made Dublin the city that I love so much, there it is.

[@chrisiscool1744]

gdixonyoutuification your right most dubs such as myself have been forced out by the property/rental market only people left are all the degree holders from other countries

[@Laneyh]

that should read in that case not I that case :)

[@lukem6667]

your man's smoking way too much

[@brienodeargain]

Hi, Whats wrong with not being a Dub. Whats wrong with not being Irish. Not a lot I should think. They are trying their best to be so. As long as people are in tune with our ways that's ok. Now Being a dub myself I welcome them to Ireland. Not that I live in Dublin I live in the UK I could not find the opportunities to meet my needs in Dublin and I know I am very welcome in the UK I Wish you all Well BRI - DAR PS. Have a look at the Music Video called RIVER LIFFEY DUBLIN CITY on You tube and you will know how much I love my old City of Dublin. Bye B D

[@EarlSquirrelsonn]

Great video. Aidan Kelly was completely full of bullshit though.

[@newbridge5336]

we are dublin my arse what a stupid title we are forigners living in dublin is the correct title so lets keep it real, next

[@gloin10]

+new bridge Sad idiot, historically ignorant.

[@maryhatch9225]

This history of Dublin is a history of foreigners coming to Dublin and becoming Dubliners.

[@papadoc711]

lol foreigners built the city you moron.

[@papadoc711]

Yes it was called Duiblinn, built some time around the 9 -10th century, however I am sorry to say, as an Irishmen, the city was built by Norsemen and later by their descendants the Normans. However I never said they founded the city Dublin, I said they built Dublin, I'm not wrong in stating that. However yes the Norse integrated well into Gaelic culture, just like many of they're Norman descendants, the Fitzgerald's, De Burgh's, D'Arcy, De Clare etc These kind of foreigners do contributed heavily to our society, its not like they're working in Asda or Lidl, these are professionals and students.

[@papadoc711]

"Also it's not really fair to say it was 'built by foreigners' because most irish people have norse and norman ancestry, so our ancestors built it anyway.... My surname is a norman one beginning with Fitz for example." The Clans of the Northern Ui Niall claimed important victories over the Vikings which left Ulster with little to no Norse imprint compared to the rest of Ireland. My family the Doherty's for example have no Norse ancestry, my family share a common ancestor linked with Niall of the Nine Hostages, lol so yes I think (I'm) fair in saying it was built by foreigners. However I wouldn't argue With the Norse Geal argument you proposed, the Kingdom of Dublin was built by Norse Gaels, Gaels with names like Ivan, Imar, Óisle (king of the foreigners) Sigtrygg II Silkbeard Olafsson, the same Norseman who fought at the infamous battle of Clontarf against the King of Munster Brian Boru.

[@MrDoggen02]

Why do you show non europeans representing white european nations? You would think Europeans are a minority based on this video

[@MrDoggen02]

+Veritas Aequitas What?! You do realize Europe is 97% white right...? America is 75% white.

[@gloin10]

+Veritas Aequitas Your claim that "France, in particular, have some estimates as a white French minority by 2050" is statistical and demographic horseshit. If you believe it, then you are, sadly, a very ignorant person.

[@thomaslittle4077]
