On the big screen: The Journey
Starring: Timothy Spall, Colm Meaney, Toby Stephens, Catherine McCormack, Freddie Highmore and John Hurt.
Director: Nick Hamm.
In 2006, amidst the ongoing, decades-long conflict in Northern Ireland, representatives from the two warring factions meet for negotiations.
In one corner is Ian Paisley, the deeply conservative British loyalist and in the other is Martin McGuinness, a former Irish Republican Army leader who has devoted his life to the cause of Irish reunification.
Opposites in every way, the two men at first seem to have little chance of ever finding common ground.
But over the course of an impromptu, detour-filled car ride through the Scottish countryside, each begins to see the other less as an enemy and more as an individual.
A breakthrough that promises to at last bring peace to the troubled region.
