Synopsis: The film tells the story of Bloody Sunday as it unfolded over one day, chronicling the arrival of thousands of British troops in the tense and crowded streets of Derry in Northern Ireland and the simultaneous preparations by civil rights leaders for a nonviolent but forceful march that was to make the case for Irish self-determination. It focuses in particular on two stories, that of march organizer Ivan Cooper, a Protestant in the Catholic sector with a fervently held belief in the need for peaceful change, and Gerry Donahue, a Catholic rebel with a Protestant girlfriend who might be settling down but is drawn into the struggle.

Comment: Screened World Cinema Sundance 2002. Paramount Classics paid estimate $1 million for North America, Latin American & Japanese rights. Screened at AFM 2002.
