THE IRISH QUESTION
Special Features: North American Premiere | Q&A with director Alan Gilsenan and writer John Walsh, moderated by Dr. Darragh Gannon, Assistant Teaching Professor and Associate Director of Global Irish Studies, Georgetown University
This provocative, poetic and cinematic meditation from acclaimed filmmaker Alan Gilsenan ponders the prospect of a united Ireland. With the likelihood of a border poll becoming an increasing possibility, is there full understanding of what that could mean for all those living on the island of Ireland? Or could Ireland stumble into some possible future as Britain once sleep-walked into Brexit? With unique contributions from the likes of Leo Varadkar, Bill Clinton, Mary-Lou McDonald, Mike Nesbitt, Monica McWilliams, John Major, Susan McKay, Bertie Ahern, Fintan O’Toole, Gerry Adams, Linda Ervine and Peter Mandelson, amongst many others, THE IRISH QUESTION takes a fresh and sometimes surprising look at the dark trauma of the past and the unique possibilities of the future.
