The movie is set in 2006, during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. The conflict is escalating, and a new generation is inspired by the 9/11 attacks. The Catholic Republican and Protestant Unionist sides are persuaded to explore a peace agreement, but the principle negotiators, Ian Paisley and Martin McGuinness, are decades-long enemies.
The Journey
The 2006 Northern Ireland peace talks bring together unlikely allies Martin McGuinness, Sinn Féin leader, and Ian Paisley, Democratic Unionist Party leader, as they embark on a car journey together.
