Air Oidhche na Bliadhna 脵ire, 1918, bha an HMY Iolaire air an t-slighe dhachaigh a Ste貌rnabhagh, le se貌ladairean 脿s na h-eileanan a鈥� tilleadh dhachaigh bhon Chogadh Mh貌r.
Bhuail i Biastan Thuilm, mun t脿inig i a-staigh a chala Ste貌rnabhaigh, agus chaill 205 duine air b貌rd am beatha. 鈥橲 猫 an Iolaire fhathast an tubaist as miosa aig 脿m s矛th ann am Breatainn, agus thug e buaidh nach tuig sinn air a鈥� choimhearsnachd a dh鈥檉huiling na buille. Tha am pr貌gram seo a鈥� toirt s霉il air mar a chaidh an sgeulachd sin innse thairis air a鈥� cheud bliadhna bhon a thachair e, agus cho riatanach 鈥榮 a tha ealain ann a bhith ga chuimhneachadh 鈥檚 ga chomharrachadh.

Tha An Lanntair ann an Ste貌rnabhagh air obair ionmholta a dh猫anamh gus cuideachadh luchd-ealain obair s貌nraichte a chruthachadh mar chuimhneachan air.
A-measg an fheadhainn a tha sinn a鈥� leantainn, an neach-ci霉il agus cumadair-ci霉il, Iain Moireasdan a tha a鈥� cruthachadh p矛os-ci霉il 霉r; agus tha an luchd-ealain Alec Galloway, Mhairi Law agus Margaret Ferguson a鈥� cruthachadh obair-ealain l猫irsinneach ceangailte ris an tachartas cuideachd.

A bharrachd air sin, tha An Lanntair, as leth a鈥� choimhearsnachd, ag obair gus carragh-cuimhne 霉r a thogail, far an leughar mu dheireadh thall ainmean an fheadhainn a chaillear.
Bidh an carragh-cuimhne seo air a chruthachadh le feadhainn den luchd-ealain as ainmeile ann an Alba - Will Maclean, Marian Leven agus Arthur Watson, mar l脿rach-chuimhne bith-bhuan air na Se貌id a chaill am beatha an oidhche ghoirt sin.

On New Year's Eve 1918, HMY Iolaire was taking sailors home from the Great War to the Isle of Lewis. She struck the rocks at the mouth of Stornoway Harbour - the Beasts of Holm.
205 men were lost in what is still the the worst peacetime disaster at sea in Britain. The effect on the community was beyond measure.

This documentary is about how that story was told over the last 100 years, and the importance of art in that remembering process a century later.

An Lanntair have commissioned artists to commemorate the centenary of the Iolaire disaster. Amongst those we follow is musician and composer Iain Morrison, who is composing and performing a unique new piece of work. Visual artists such as Alec Galloway, Mhairi Law and Margaret Ferguson will also give their own artistic reflection on the event.

An Lanntair also have plans, with the support of the community, to create a new memorial to mark the loss. This new work will be created by some of the Scotland's greatest artists - Will Maclean, Marian Leven and Arthur Watson, as a lasting memorial for those that were lost.
