BOGSIDE STORY a documentary by Rocco Forte and Pietro Laino
"Sunday Bloody Sunday" intoned Bono in 1983, echoing the infamous Sunday of Blood on January 30, 1972, in Derry, when the British army opened fire on a peaceful demonstration for civil rights killing fourteen people, all unarmed. Today in the Bogside neighborhood of Derry, everything is still alive thanks to the expressive power of numerous murals that cover buildings and houses, to leave an indelible mark, not to forget. Art always has its say and never delays in appointments with history, "Bogside Story" reminds us, a precious and necessary document, an exciting reconstruction of the facts between history, art and politics, capable of renewing a sense of solidarity and respect for different identities.
