Echo Chamber: LFF21 - Day 7

It's 'Day 7' of the '65th BFI London Film Festival' and the great Kenneth Branagh transports us back to 1969 with his new feature 'Belfast'.

The @EchoChamberFP festival coverage is at full steam!

'Belfast' written and directed by Kenneth Branagh It’s 1969 and the imaginative, free-spirited Buddy (major discovery Jude Hill) knows every inch of and every person in his street of Protestant and Catholic families. He pops into neighbouring houses as though they were his own and people look out for him while his working-class parents (Jamie Dornan and Caitriona Balfe) hustle to make ends meet. But this blissful sense of security is about to be broken by sectarian violence and the tanks that sweep through the city.

In today's episode:
