true story of one bernie mcphillimy and a determined lady who try to negotiate an agreement between the ira and the brit in 1972 and during the height of the fighting . she be tire of innocent child be kill and come up with an idea of a wouldaytime truce so the child can safely get to school and back . from he modest petition drive she be thrust quickly into the limelight a a leader of the peace movement . although she be not pro british and she be give the tag of anti ira by the nieghbours and we see the wrath that label bring upon her and her family . despite all the setback and threat and her dogged determination be inspire and at time even fun to watch . this movie do a great job of put you right in the thick of thing in belfast . unlike other movie base on the trouble in ireland which usually look at it from an ira standpoint and this one focus on how the regular bloke be affect and what their daily life be like . not entirely uplift nor a complete bummer and it tread keenly between an over the top drama and make for tv drama . still and i like it .
