ON COLLETTE as she clings to him for dear life...<br />
ON THE CHILDREN who are frightened, uncertain...<br />
RYAN draws them in. The kids shut their eyes, accept his<br />
protective embrace.<br />
EXT. BLACK MOUNTAIN - NIGHT.<br />
On ALLEN as he watches the car make its way down the hill.<br />
He wipes the rain-water from his face.<br />
We FOLLOW as he tracks back to his own car.<br />
INT. ALLEN’S CAR - NIGHT<br />
He starts up, swings away.<br />
CLOSE ON HIS FACE. This is his war.<br />
There are never any winners.<br />
FADE TO BLACK.<br />
BRING UP:<br />
In August 1993, the IRA called its first cease-fire for<br />
more than twenty years.<br />
Hard-liners like Gerry McVeigh were defeated and the peace<br />
process succeeded.<br />
It endures to this day.<br />
Security force informers like Collette and her mother<br />
played a vital part in bringing the conflict to a close.<br />
Many ended their lives in loneliness and squalor in a wet<br />
ditch far from home.<br />
They were the war’s unsung heroes.<br />
THE END
