Description

Radicalisation The 2010 Saville report finally places the blame for Bloody Sunday on the British Army, which inspires a young reporter to investigate how the trauma impacted his own family. He knows vaguely of a drama bookended by two shots, two killings, five years apart. One felled a young victim on that fateful day. The second ended a promising young life that had been radicalized by grief and a determination for revenge.
The story is rich with details of the lives of the people of Northern Ireland and Southern Scotland and how they are innocently hauled into a drama that should never have become ordinary, and yet for so many will feel all too familiar.
Through Aidan, Siobhan, Connor, Rose, and A.J. we are shown that pain can be borne but then passed on like a genetic malformation through the generations.
