My carefully selected list of the movies set in Ireland, showcasing its stunning landscapes and cinematography. All genres: from classics to comedies, horrors, and hidden gems. All of these films capture Ireland’s wild beauty and culture.

This is a list of films, both historical and fictional, about Ireland, its history, its people (at home and abroad), its legends and folklore.
