Ireland's Hidden People

People Dublin is celebrating its 1,000th birthday. The Irish are opening their doors and their hearts to the world. But hidden away from the celebrations, life in Ireland is harsh. One in five people is unemployed. Homelessness is on the increase as more and more Irish migrate to Dublin. Poverty is writ large. In a profoundly Catholic country, renowned for sending missionaries to the Third World, the Irish are suddenly finding the poor are on their own doorstep. Everyman reports from Ireland on the individual members of the Church who are responding in unexpected ways to the problems of Ireland's hidden people.
