The Island Of Inis Cool is a refreshing animation series that could only be set on an isolated island off an unknown coast of Ireland. Indeed, Inis Cool represents a cultural fault-line where time doesn't stand still, so much as loiters a bit. Our heroes, the three dim-witted schoolboys Biff, Boff and Ben O'Malley, amuse and annoy with their cheeky attitudes and outrageous antics. They live on a remote island but, when the modern world intrudes, tourists and technology are exploited without mercy in the interests of the boys and their comical ambitions.
Series broadcasters include: KIKA, Germany; TG4, Ireland; YLE Finland; TV Estonia; NPB, Holland; BBC, Scotland and many other international broadcasters.
