I, Dolours

Director: Maurice Sweeney

A cinematic, yet intimate and complex, portrait of Dolours Price. Two years before she died, the militant IRA activist, hunger striker, and dissident Republican gave a filmed interview on the condition that it would not be broadcast in her lifetime. This shocking film brings us deep inside the IRA and charts one woman’s journey from a passionate idealist to a disillusioned cynic, haunted by the memories of the terrible things she did for a cause she once so strongly believed in, and killed for, but which she believes was ultimately betrayed. Passionate but fragile, dogmatic yet tortured, she was also a beautiful, charismatic woman, loving mother, devoted sister, and friend. Fascinating, moving, and at times deeply disturbing – this is her story.
