RCB Documentary – Che Town

Why are there several images of Che Guevara around the small town of Kilkee on the west coast of Ireland? There is even a Che Do Beatha festival in Kilkee held in September. We attempt to find out why Kilkee is Che-town and what are the links between the Marxist revolutionary, Kilkee and Ireland.
Did Che Guevara visit Kilkee?
Stories tell that Che Guevara visited the town in 1961 and had a drink in the Marine Hotel. Jim Fitzpatrick the artist credited with the iconic high contrast artwork seen on posters and T-shirts everywhere picks up the story.
