Sunday (2002)

In the heart of Derry/Londonderry, Northern Ireland, Sunday unveils the chilling tale of a notorious day that shook the world and the subsequent layers of deceit woven by the British Government of the era. The narrative recounts the chilling happenings of January 30, 1972, a day that commenced with a peaceful civil rights protest against internment - a day that would eventually become etched in history as Bloody Sunday. The Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association (NICRA) had organized this march, a plea for justice that ended in an unthinkable tragedy - 13 innocent marchers dead, and 15 wounded. Sunday paints a vivid picture of this grim day primarily through the lens of the Derry community, their aspirations, fears, and ultimate despair. In a stark contrast, it also delves into the meticulous preparations and responses of the British Army and the state on this fateful day. The film unravels not just the cold, hard facts, but also the raw emotional truth of the incident. Sunday is a haunting exploration of a historical event that still echoes in the corridors of time, a narrative that strikes a balance between the intricate details and the heart-wrenching human toll of Bloody Sunday.

Sunday is a drama movie featuring Ciarán McMenamin.
