Her documentary ' The Hunger Strike ' , in co-production with Joel Conroy of Inis Films , was made for the 25th anniversary of the 1981 Irish Hunger Strike and received record viewing figures when broadcast on BBC Northern Ireland . Over a twelve-year stretch from 1998 to 2010 , Harkin filmed ' Bloody Sunday-A Derry Diary ' a deeply personal documentary following the Tribunal of Inquiry into Bloody Sunday from the perspective of local people profoundly affected by the original events in addition to addressing Harkin ’s own experiences on Bloody Sunday . Though an initial cut of the film was screened on ZDF , Arte and RTÉ in 2007 , Harkin considered it a ' work in progress ' and returned to complete the film when the Report of the Saville Inquiry was released on 15 June 2010 . The final cut aired on the RTÉ on 24 Jun 2010 . In a change of direction Harkin produced the feature documentary ' Waveriders ' ( 2008 ) directed by Joel Conroy in co-production with Inis Films , about surfing in Ireland . At its premiere at the Dublin Film Festival in 2008 it won the Audience Award and later the IFTA George Morrison award for Best Irish Feature Documentary . Shot entirely on 16 mm film it had a successful theatrical release in Ireland/UK in 2009 and is currently being distributed worldwide
