This is the trailer for the new film HUNGER WITH Michael Fassbender and directed by Steve McQueen. Is trailer é don scannan HUNGER le Michael Fassbender. It is about Bobby Sands (who was a fluent irish language / gaeilge speaker) and the hunger strikes of the early 1980's. This will be a must see film for anybody interested in the political situation in Ireland.Tá sé faoi Roibeard Gearóid Ó Seachnasaigh agus an stailc ocras sa 1980's. Tá gaeilge aige agus go raibh sé an bhróduil aistí.This is what the Times said of the film This is a stunning debut feature, and one of the very few British films represented at this year's Cannes festival. Steve McQueen is a former Turner Prize-winner and at the last official hearing precisely ninety eight miles off-message. His immaculately old school thriller about the IRA, and trying to survive the brutality of Her Majesty's Prison Service in Long Kesh, is just wonderful. There are few words. No music. And less spelling. Bobby Sands, played by Michael Fassbender, is the star. In a prison cell decorated by his own faeces he foments one of the most potent challenges to Margaret Thatcher's tenure as Prime Minister. He decides to starve himself to death. I can't describe what this actor goes through. The 24 minute single shot debate in a prison visiting room with a parish priest about the reasons why is pure Oscar. The starvation is an unspeakable horror. The formality of the film is totally unsettling. In fact it's poetry.

Mar sin, b'éigean fothoghchán a chóiriú le Feisire nua a vótáil isteach. Chonaic lucht leanúna an tSeachnasaigh áiméar anseo le tacaíocht an phobail Náisiúnaígh ar fad a thiomsú d'fheachtas na stailceoirí ocrais. Tharraing na páirtithe náisiúnaíocha eile - an SDLP ach go háirithe - siar ón toghchánaíocht, agus hainmníodh an Seachnasach mar phríosúnach polaitiúil in Ard Mhacha ag cur in aghaidh na H-Bhlocanna.I ndiaidh feachtas toghchánaíochta nach raibh aon duine in ann dearcadh neodrach a bheith aige air, bhain an Seachnasach amach an suíochán le 30,492 vóta in aghaidh 29,046 cheann a caitheadh ar son a chéile iomaíochta, Harry West, a bhí ag seasamh do Pháirtí Aontachtach Uladh (UUP). Go gairid ina dhiaidh sin, d'athraigh Rialtas na Breataine an reachtaíocht toghchánaíochta le feachtais den chineál seo a chosc roimh ré.[athraigh] A BhásTrí seachtaine i ndiaidh an toghcháin, stiúg an Seachnasach in otharlann an phríosúin i ndiaidh sé lá agus trí scór a chaitheamh ar céalacan. Nuair a chuala na Náisiúnaígh go raibh sé básaithe, thosaigh scliúchais a mhair ar feadh roinnt laethanta. Tháinig breis agus céad míle duine á chomóradh chun na huaighe. Bhí an Seachnasach ina Fheisire ar feadh cúig lá is fiche, - ceann de na téarmaí is gairide ó tháinig an Phairlimint ar an bhfód an chéad uair. Bhí sé á chaí ag teaghlach mór: idir thuismitheoirí, deirféaracha, deartháracha agus mac óg a rugadh don chailín a raibh cumann aige léi sular cimíodh é.Fuair naonúr fear eile bás le linn na stailce ocrais seo, i ndiaidh an tSeachnasaigh: Proinsias Ó hAodha, Peatsaí Ó hEadhra, Réamann Mac Raois, Seosamh Mac Dónaill, Máirtín Ó hUrsain, Caoimhín Ó Loingsigh, Ciarán Ó Dochartaigh, Tomás Mac Giolla Bhuí agus Mícheál Ó Duibhinn. An chuid is mó de lucht leanúna an IRA, is follasach go raibh meas an mhairtírigh acu ar gach aon fhear de na stailceoirí ocrais seo. Thairis sin, bhí cuid mhór de na Caitlicigh eile - an chuid acu a bhí in aghaidh an IRA agus na gleice armtha, fiú - bhí siad thar a bheith míshásta leis an stiúir a bhí faoi Rialtas na Breataine.Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam
