This weekend, Theatre N at Nemours will
show The Wind That Shakes The Barley.
The film will be shown on Friday, April 27 at 2
and 8 p.m., Saturday, April 28 at 2, 5 and 8 p.m. and
Sunday, April 29 at 2 and 5 p.m.
The movie details workers from field and country that
unite to form volunteer guerrilla armies to face the
ruthless "Black and Tan" squads that are being
shipped from Britain to block Ireland's bid for
independence. Driven by a deep sense of duty and a
love for his country, Damien abandons his burgeoning
career as a doctor and joins his brother, Teddy, in a
dangerous and violent fight for freedom. As the
freedom fighters' bold tactics bring the British to
breaking point, both sides finally agree to a treaty to
end the bloodshed. But, despite the apparent victory,
civil war erupts and families, who fought side by side,
find themselves pitted against one another as sworn
enemies, putting their loyalties to the ultimate test.
Tickets are $7, $5 for senior citizens and students with
ID, and $5 for all shows before 5 p.m. Theatre N is
located at 11th and Tatnall Sts. For more information,
