Imprisoned and shot, Gerry Adams was demonized and censored by the establishment media -- yet in the end the British and their allies were forced to recognize his legitimacy and negotiate with him and his party Sinn Féin -- the result was the Irish peace accord, 'The Good Friday Agreement'. A Ballymurphy Man is a unique documentary as Adams tells his story for the first time. Illustrated with a wealth of imagery of what is one of the most heavily photographed conflicts of our time. Layers of both still and moving images interwoven with his voice giving an insight into Adams' world, relaxed, informal, and uncensored.
