This is a (mainly) black & white loosly autobiographical film based on Sir Kenneth Branagh`s childhood during “the troubles”.
It is about a boy called Buddy who is trying to understand what is happening in his community and how it will affect his family.
Despite the subject matter there was a surprising amount if humour – largely from his grandparents.
Overall it was a good film that showed that hatred is bad and war is pointless.
7/10
