Michael Collins

The film takes place in Ireland, not very long after the Easter Rising in 1916. It's about the Irish
struggle for freedom. They no longer want to be part of England.
The film starts with Collins fighting in a post office during the 1916 Easter uprising against the
British. They are defeated and put in jail. We watch as Collins, upon his release from prison, sets
about the task of ensuring a republican victory in the next round of confrontation with the British.
Collins and Boland are best friends as well as comrades they share all with each other and even
share the love of a woman…
