November 4, 2007
Mairead is 20 years old and a Catholic. She has never interacted with a Protestant in her life. Painful memories from her childhood have left her with a deep sense of distrust towards ‘the other side’. When she meets her flatmates new boyfriend, Mairead’s views and feelings towards ‘the enemy’ begin to change.
Christine is a Protestant and lives on the other side of the ‘peace wall’. She is an 18 year old single mother still living at home with her parents. Her dream is to have her own home and to find a man who will look after her. When she finally does find love her family will have to put their long standing prejudices behind them.
Swedish director Malin Andersson’s debut film is a skillfully made documentary that follows the girls during a period when unexpected events make them challenge the ‘walls’ and cross the ‘divide’
