Shot entirely on location in Craigavon, Co. Armagh, Peacefire is a gritty, moving and bitterly funny account of one young man’s experience of crime and punishment on his local housing estate.
Colin Mc Nally couldn’t give a monkey’s about the peace process. He’s too busy out stealing cars with his mates. But a chance encounter with a ruthless detective turns him into an informer for the so called forces of law and order and a target for retribution for his father’s old mates in the IRA.
In the violent upheaval that follows, Colin must struggle with the intense loyalty he feels for his mates; the need to protect his mother from her tragic past; and the political ideals of a dead father.
