SYNOPSIS

This documentary is Gerry Adams' story told in his words, the first and possibly the last time he will engage with a director on a feature documentary about his life. We look back with him, from childhood, his activism as a young man, through the conflict - the dismantling of the IRA and the establishment of the Peace Process, (1965 to 2007): from war to peace and toward Irish re-unification, the story of a controversial leader, his vision, his truth and his commitment to change.
