Give Up Yer Aul Sins

Give Up Yer Aul Sins is based on the Academy Award® nominated short film by Brown Bag Films. The episodes humorously re-enact original recordings of Dublin schoolrooms in the 1960s made by Peig Cunningham and subsequently rediscovered and released by EMI. 

In each episode, a documentary crew arrives to film the activities of the classroom. The teacher chooses children to retell, in their own imaginative way, the bible stories they have learned.

An animated character wearing a crown and robe, holding up both hands while speaking or singing passionately.
A classroom scene with a young student sitting at a desk looking up at a microphone hanging from the ceiling. Other students are visible in the background.
