A film set in Belfast in the 80s about a guy in the IRA but who was also a tout to the British. I have to say it wasnt a bad film and it told a good story. Some hard hitting scences in places but the acting in it is very good.

He was actually very lucky to live,jumping out that window in Twinbrook.Had he not done that he would have been tortured for days,maybe weeks and dumped in a shallow grave over the border!
Good show,I wish they just would have kept it more honest!
