Vet On The Rocks(1976)
Renowned Irish filmmaker, Bob Quinn of Cinegael, spent a week in the mid-1970s following Connemara vet, Maurice O'Scanaill, on his rounds in the wild and wonderful scenery of Connemara. This was long before the advent of mobile phones and, in such a vast and mountainous area, radio/telephone was not a viable option. This made working in the area something of a logistical nightmare but a very scenic nightmare.
