growing revolution and the sacrifices it will demand. Through Ned's
eyes, 1916 examines the Irish fight for freedom. Inspired by poets
and school teachers, fueled by a desperate desire for independence,
and played out in the historic streets of Dublin against the
background of World War I. It is a story of the brave men and
heroic women who, for a few unforgettable days, managed to holdout
against the might of the British Empire.
