The Film 

After 40 years of conflict in Northern Ireland, the Good Friday agreement ushered in a period of relative peace and stability in the northwest corner of Europe. But the unintended consequences of the UK leaving the European Union have threatened to reignite a sectarian fire that many thought had been extinguished long ago. This film takes the audience on a journey to both sides of the Irish Sea to explore the social, political, and economic impact of Brexit on Northern Ireland.

 

The Panelists

Tony Silberfeld (moderator), director, Transatlantic Relations, Bertelsmann Foundation
Philippe Dickinson, second secretary, Political Section, Embassy of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Tom Glynn, film Director, The Troubles with Brexit
