Jim Sheridan
In the Name of the Father - DDL
Truth survives even when the system refuses to hear it.
After a pub bombing in Guildford, a young Irishman is wrongfully accused and imprisoned along with his father. Inside the British legal system, their struggle for exoneration reveals institutional bias, political fear, and the fragility of truth. The film traces both a quest for justice and a strained father-son relationship shaped by years of confinement.
Na een bomaanslag in Guildford worden een jonge Ier en zijn vader ten onrechte veroordeeld. Hun jarenlange gevangenschap legt de vooringenomenheid en politieke angst binnen het Britse rechtssysteem bloot. Tegelijkertijd schetst de film een aangrijpend portret van een vader-zoonrelatie onder extreme druk.
