One of the most important and authentic insights into the Irish Republican H Block protests, 6 February 2006
10/10
Author: info-3375 from Belfast

An authentic portrayal of a group of men and their reactions to the extraordinary circumstances they find themselves in. Having been imprisoned for their political beliefs, and as such seeing themselves as POW's, the British establishment force their 'criminalisation policy' on the young inmates. Their resistance to the system leads to life in cells with their own excrement smeared on walls, horrific mirror searches, regular beatings and the death of ten of their comrades on Hunger Strike. H3 (written by two ex-prisoners / one ex-hunger striker) is an important piece of Irish History, giving us insight into the dilemmas, claustrophobic conditions, strength of spirit and humanity of the inmates of H Block 3.
