| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Lurgan Northern Ireland, 1975. A low level civil war has been
underway, with the IRA targeting British loyalists and the
loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force exacting revenge on Catholics
they claim are militant republicans. Alistair Little, 16 is
the leader of a UVF cell, eager to be blooded. He and his
gang are given the go ahead to kill a young Catholic man,
James Griffin, as a reprisal and a warning to others. When
the hit is carried out, Joe Griffin - the 11-year old little
brother of the target - watches in horror his brother is shot
in the head. Thirty years later Joe Griffin and Alistair are
to meet, on camera, with a view to reconciliation. Alistair
has served his sentence, and Peace may been agreed in N. Ireland,
but unbeknownst to the production team, Joe Griffin, is not
coming on the program for a handshake but to stick a knife
in his brother's killer - live on air.
