I hope you find joy in some of these movies. There seems to be lots of movies that are based around the Irish or simply just Ireland itself. If you are looking for an informative movie then it may be a tougher search, as it was hard for me to find something around those lines. ]
I think I've found the perfect site for you, however before I post a link, here's one I like.
