Original English version.

London, 1975. Gerry Conlon, a young Irishman from Belfast, small-time crook and carefree party boy, is arrested, tortured and sentenced to life imprisonment, along with his father and nine other relatives, for an attack carried out and claimed by the IRA.

 The movie will be preceded by a brief introductory presentation and followed by a discussion led by Laurent Colantonio (UQAM history professor).
