'71

During a bloody riot, a soldier is cut off from his unit, stranded amidst rampant paramilitary factions. Come nightfall, the city turns into a battlefield in an unrelenting nightmare, where it's impossible to tell your friends from your enemies.

A group of British soldiers is deployed to Belfast in 1971, in the middle of a raging conflict between the Protestants and the Catholics that could spin out of control at any given moment.

During a bloody riot, a soldier is cut off from his unit, stranded amidst rampant paramilitary factions. Come nightfall, the city turns into a battlefield in an unrelenting nightmare, where it's impossible to tell your friends from your enemies.

In one of the most lauded debuts in recent film history, French-Algerian newcomer Yann Demange stuns audiences with his surprising ability to negotiate the prickly subject of a painful civil conflict, while navigating the demands of a production that could easily dwarf any number of big budget Hollywood adventures.

Unfairly shut out from the 2014 Berlinale awards, this is a riveting anti-war parable with none of the usual clichés, brilliantly combining Ken Loach's legacy with the unsurpassable craftsmanship of action film master Paul Greengrass. N.S.
