After depicting the musical culture of Dublin's northside in his acclaimed documentary North Circular, director Luke McManus is now looking at the area's politics.
His new documentary The Locals follows a range of candidates in the run-up to the June 2024 local elections, painting a picture of a diverse area and an equally diverse group of politicians.
Luke talks to Hugh Linehan about making the documentary, the people it portrays and the issues they care about.
The Locals is on RTÉ One on Monday, July 15th at 9:35pm and will also be available on the RTÉ player.
