This is a tense, exciting and very well-made action film about a young British soldier caught out of his depth on the mean streets of Belfast in Northern Ireland in the early years of the Troubles. He finds himself accidentally abandoned by his unit following a riot in 1971. Unable to tell friend from foe, and increasingly wary of his own comrades, the raw recruit must survive the night alone and find his way to safety through a violent landscape.
“A tense thriller from Britain that so adroitly joins physical intensity, emotional authenticity and political acuity that you may find yourself
forgetting to take a breath.”
