Defining who the Celts were over 2000 years ago is a challenge for historians and archaeologists. Even more difficult is understanding who today proudly claims these roots in everyday life. The docuseries Triskelion will investigate what remains of Celtic identity: is it plausible that these ancient people still influence the customs, traditions, culture, and spirituality of people living today? The series explores the connection between Celtic identity and figurative art, the passion for Celtic music and dance, and how these elements contribute to a sense of belonging. It also questions who can define themselves as Celtic today: is it a matter of language or place of birth? Is it about culture or DNA?
Triskelion will try to find out if owning a Celtic identity is a widespread or rare and elitist feeling, whether it is an inclusive concept or one that aims to exclude, examining the connection between cultural identity, language, genetic roots, and geographical origins.
But what is the truth, if there is one? Who were the ancient Celts in the first place? What is their place, if any at all, in the world today and in the future? Ultimately: what does it mean, in the 21st century, to identify as a Celt?
"Triskelion: The Celtic Identity" is a docuseries divided in three parts.
The triskelion, as it is often seen, will be a symbol of the continuous cycle of past, present and future in Celtic history.
The series will embark on a deep exploration of these questions through interviews with experts from the academic world, renowned artists including Alan Stivell, one of the foremost representatives of the Celtic harp in Brittany and the world, Irish national radio presenter Ola Majekodunmi, Northern Irish musician Martin Okasili, Scottish-Italian linguist and musician Edoardo McKenna (from Brigata Folk), presenter, director and body language guru Luca Vullo, and others.
Identifying with Celtic heritage is still a source of pride today across the lands of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, the Isle of Man, Cornwall, extending to regions such as Brittany, Galicia and beyond, in the Aosta Valley, in Piedmont, Lombardy, Friuli Venezia Giulia and even further away. The docuseries will be going through many of these territories in search of answers.
Triskelion has recently received a significant boost with the ILBF development grant from Northern Ireland Screen, the national screen agency for Northern Ireland thanks to our cooperation with Dearcán Media.
The project has captured the attention of various public and private broadcasters and video platforms, both from the Celtic Nations and beyond. These entities have formally expressed their interest in broadcasting and streaming the docuseries while we are undergoing their official commissioning process. Additionally, various private and public organisations have offered financial contributions to support the production costs. Support has also come from local authorities, minority language institutions across Europe, and some universities, all offering their patronage and other forms of assistance.
Celtic Life International magazine has agreed to support our crowdfunding campaign by spreading the word, thus becoming one of our key media partners, together with MyCulture.plus and UAM.TV video platforms.
This ambitious and independent project is now in a crucial development phase: having garnered attention from various broadcasters and platforms, Triskelion is now welcoming contributions from 4Fund's audience as well as enthusiasts passionate about Celticity and identity. We invite you to support this initiative financially and, in return, officially become a film funder, receiving a range of perks and rewards for your involvement. Your donation will support the development phase as we endeavour to secure additional funding from commissioning media organizations, creative agencies, and various public and private sources.
