Act of Union

Newly filmed interviews weave through archival footage in this documentary, capturing the deep, opposing memories of Northern Ireland’s Troubles. The film lets former combatants, politicians, and civilians speak directly, their personal stories diverging sharply on the same historic events. By placing these contemporary reflections against original news clips and propaganda, the documentary exposes how the past remains a contested, living conflict—where the same moments are remembered as triumph, tragedy, or justification.
