War and Peace in Ireland
Made on the cusp of the 1998 Good Friday Agreement, a film retracing the conflict in Northern Ireland from 1968 to the present day - notably the civil rights movement of the late '60s, the outbreak of war in 1969, the birth of a peace process in the early 1990s that ultimately led to the IRA cease-fires of 1994 and 1997, and the current all-party negotiations that today offer the best chance for peace to the people of Northern Ireland in over a generation. Explores the complexities of the conflict through archival footage and portraits of political leaders who lived these events and played an important role in the search for a peaceful resolution to the seemingly interminable Irish “troubles”.
