How to watch ‘Crá’ online from anywhere — stream Irish-language crime drama

When the body of Sabine Ó Súilleabháin is discovered in a remote Donegal bog, 15 years after she went missing, the local community welcomes investigators with an impenetrable wall of silence. Floundering, their suspicions turn towards one of their own, Sabine’s “psychopathic” son Conall (Dónall Ó Héalai), who’s forbidden from working the case. However, he might have a way around that.

Here’s how to watch “Crá” online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for FREE.

The Irish show joins Gaelic-language drama “An t-Eilean/The Island” in the BBC’s stable of minority-language crime thrillers.

Ciara-Kate (Hannah Brady), a cut-throat young journalist looking to make a name for herself, soon finds that people who weren’t prepared to speak to investigators are willing to dish the dirt on a true-crime podcast. It’s a vulgar means of getting to the truth, but as the prime suspect, Conall has little choice but to throw his full weight behind Ciara-Kate. 

One contribution provokes another and so on, and the discovery of a number of skeletons provides encouragement that Ciara-Kate and Conall are on the right track, but even so, will the Gardaí take their findings seriously? Somebody has to break.

A six-part Gaelic noir written by Doireann Ní Chorragáin and Richie Conroy, read on to find out how to watch “Crá” online, on TV and from anywhere.
