This five-part documentary series captures the profound personal stories of individuals from both sides of the sectarian divide, whose lives were shaped by The Troubles. Through intimate testimonies, it reveals the impact of the conflict—from a son whose mother was abducted by the IRA, to a loyalist grappling with a family secret. Spanning from the outbreak of violence in the late 1960s to the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998, the series offers a deeply human perspective on a tumultuous chapter of Northern Ireland’s history.
A screening of episodes 3 and 5 of Once Upon a Time in Northern Ireland (original version with English subtitles, 120 min.).
The film screening was presented in cooperation with this human world.
