The Great Hunger has never been dramatised in cinema.
A film about the Irish Famine hits cinemas today.
Black 47 tells the story of an Irish soldier (James Frecheville) who deserts the British army when he learns about the hopeless devastation in his homeland.
The revenge thriller also stars Hugo Weaving, Stephen Rea, Moe Dunford, Barry Keoghan, Jim Broadbent and Sarah Greene.
Garry and Fionnuala caught up with director Lance Daly to chat about putting the Famine on film.
