Massacre at Ballymurphy (2018x43)

Data emisji: Wrz 09, 2018

Massacre at Ballymurphy is a forensic exposé of one of the most shocking and significant events of the troubles in Northern Ireland: a series of killings the British Army stand accused of which took place over three days in West Belfast's Ballymurphy estate in 1971. Among the 11 who died were a priest who was attending another man who had been shot, but survived - and a mother of eight children. This important film presents evidence suggesting that, contrary to the claims of the army at the time, all of the victims were innocent and unarmed. The families of the dead accuse Britain's elite Parachute Regiment of carrying out the shootings, the same regiment which, less than six months later, was to shoot dead 13 unarmed people on what became known the world over as Bloody Sunday.
