Description: "In 1922, the people of Ireland turned against each other in one of the bloodiest civil wars in history.  In the aftermath, the country descended into a subversive, fratricidal conflict that lasted for decades. This program features interviews with participants in the Civil War, some in their 90s, whose passionate defense of the side they took remains as strong and vivid as ever.  Interviews are interwoven throughout with archival footage and photographs from the period"--Container.
