- Synopsis:
Kenneth Griffith's moving documentary on the life and death of Michael Collins, told using Griffith's uniquely dramatic storytelling techniques, was originally judged to be too controversial for TV audiences. Effectively banned for two decades, the film paints a vivid portrait of a man prepared to give everything he had for the sake of liberty and the concept of unity. Walk in the footsteps of 'the Big Fella' himself, as Griffith visits many historic locations from Collins' life, from the house in which he was born to the road where he fought his last battle. From his birth to his early death, and featuring archive footage of Collins and his contemporaries, this is the full story of a man whose actions still reverberate almost a century later. - Actors:
