Synopsis: | The Giant's Causeways, asks the question, can the friendship between two boys, one Catholic, the other Protestant, stand up to the political and religious battles surrounding them in 1960s Northern Ireland? Loosely based on a story told by her father who grew up in Belfast during the Troubles, The Giant's Causeways is a tale told from a larger, empathetic perspective that no one side was right, weaving a fierce drama about rage, pain and death along with some Irish singing, whiskey drinking, and the moral choices we make every day. The Giant's Causeways has been a long journey into her family's history and the political culture of Northern Ireland. | |||||
