Shocking evidence has emerged exposing the involvement of a British Army regiment at the heart of the gang's six-year campaign of terror. This gritty doc reveals the collusion between the British government and loyalist death squads. And to the despair of the relatives, today the UK still refuses to accept their role in the bloody enterprise.

Disappointing

This film is cinematically quite well put together but it seems to have a narrative it wants to present and goes about delivering that narrative. While there is some factual basis, the film (a documentary) doesn't seem to approach things dispassionately and it weakens its credibility for that reason. It would benefit from more balanced discussion of the wider context.

While the story presented here is legitimate, and a useful contribution, it is not the whole truth (and probably doesn't claim to be). The danger though with pieces like this is that there are some people who accept them as the whole truth without any further examination or wider study.
