Prominent Belfast-born republican Anthony McIntyre talks candidly about his life before and after joining the Irish Republican Army. From picking up a machine gun at the age of 14, to prison, the Blanket Protests and hungerstrikes, McIntyre speaks rawly about his own journey through the republican movement and overcoming the bigotry that consumed him during the dark period known as The Troubles.
