Belfast
AroView: A glowing cine-memoir from director Kenneth Branagh, depicting a nine-year-old’s experience on the streets of Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 1969.
Set around the start of The Troubles, a tumultuous political environment that irrevocably changed the vibrant working class community that the director himself came of age in. A deeply personal project for Branagh which imbues the era with affection and nostalgia, as reflected in the songs of Belfast native Van Morrison.
“The result is engaging, tender film-making which tugs at the heart-strings, spurred by a sympathetic cast and the young lead, newcomer Jude Hill.” ~Fionnuala Halligan, Screen Daily
