Sinopsis
Caroline does not remember living in a time of peace; she has been a young child when the "troubles" in Belfast started. During the 25 years during which the war lasted, she got married and raised three children; and only a few weeks before the ceasefire started she was killed. Since the ceasefire, the situation in Northern Ireland has not changed much: the fear to talk is as big as ever before.
This feature-length documentary investigates the role the British government played in the murder of over 120 civilians in Counties Armagh and Tyrone from July 1972 to 1978.
The testimony of the men who unwittingly became war photographers on the streets of their own towns in Northern Ireland, when violence erupted around them. Instead of photographing weddings and celebrities, as they expected, they produced the images that crudely show the suffering of ordinary people between 1968 and 1998, the worst years of the conflict.
The story of the Northern Ireland Troubles through the unflinching testimony of two men who played key roles on opposite sides of that bloody conflict. Nearly ten years ago the two paramilitary leaders told their stories on condition that they could never be revealed while they were still alive. The stories told by the Irish Republican Army's Brendan Hughes and Ulster Volunteer Force's David Ervine tell us of the motivations of the participants, the planning of campaigns of violence, the misery of a hunger strike, the tracking and killing of informers and the duplicity that ended a conflict that had lasted too long. It is also a narrative of the fate of combatants when their wars are over.
Over fourteen days in March 1988, a sequence of traumatic events shook Northern Ireland to its core and shocked the world. But it was also 14 days that compelled one man, Redemptorist priest Fr Alec Reid, to find a way out of the deadly cycle of violence.
Irlanda del Norte. Docudrama sobre los trágicos sucesos ocurridos en Londonderry el domingo 30 de enero de 1972. Ese día soldados británicos dispararon contra civiles desarmados que participaban en una manifestación: trece personas murieron y otras catorce fueron heridas. Los manifestantes protestaban contra un decreto del Gobierno británico que autorizaba la prisión preventiva. El "Bloody Sunday" o "Domingo Sangriento" fue crucial para Irlanda del Norte porque hizo que el conflicto se recrudeciera, animó a muchos jóvenes a integrarse en el IRA y fue la causa de 25 años de violencia. Obra de carácter coral en la que destaca el personaje de Ivan Cooper, un idealista que líderaba el movimiento por los derechos civiles y compartía el sueño de Martin Luther King de lograr un cambio pacífico.

Ahora, en este momento de debilidad, el superhéroe más duro deberá combatir contra el imparable líder y su ejército. Es rojo, caliente e incomprendido es Hellboy (Ron Perlman).
