In the Name of the Father

A lawyer's relentless pursuit of justice leads to a thrilling courtroom showdown as they work to free a wrongly accused individual, whose complex past is tied to an IRA bombing that also led to their father's imprisonment.

Gerry Conlon, a young Belfastian, admits to a petty robbery in London, but denies involvement in the 1974 Guildford Pub bombing that killed several people. Despite signing statements of guilt, he claims they were signed under duress. With provable alibis and the eventual admission of a known I.R.A. member, Joe McAndrew, Gerry and his co-accused, the Guildford Four, are cleared of the bombing.
