Damianis an ordinary medical college student in Ireland. After graduation, he went to London for further studies. However, after the outbreak of the Irish War of Independence, he returned to his hometown and joined the Irish Republican Army with his brother Teddyand his friend Dan. They fought extremely fiercely with the "Black and Brown" militia unit hired by the British government to suppress the Irish Republican Army. Because of the bravery and good fighting of the freedom fighters, the British army was forced to agree to a treaty between the two sides to stop bloodshed and sacrifice. However, victory was only a superficial phenomenon. Soon the civil war broke out. Those families who had fought side by side painfully discovered that they had to face the so-called enemies that had been sworn in. This was a cruel test of their loyalty

@小西天. Four and a half stars. 1. It is said that when Wong Kar-wai was the chairman of the jury that year, he didn't even look down on the main competition film, and finally decided to support the wind and the wheat wave out of respect for his predecessors. 2. There really doesn't seem to be anything new about Ken Lodge, but his old-school stern precision itself is the style that best fits the story. 3. But I still see something interesting. The story contains a lot of "unfinished" accidents: the first half of the black and brown army did not complete the name, the first operation of the Republican army failed to detonate the bomb, the rescue operation left a cell that could not be opened, leaving three companions, etc. The list goes on and on. All small unfinished accidents point to the "unfinished" inevitability of resistance and revolution. 4. The original soundtrack is excellent, but Ken Rocky doesn't bother to use it for sensationalism at all. This is called advanced.
