Plot summary
The border between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland has meandered across rural Irish farmlands since its creation in 1922. Throughout this time film crews and journalists have descended upon the border, attempting to understand its absurdities and contradictions – and the turmoil it can cause. At yet another crucial moment in its history, Border Country: When Ireland Was Divided brings almost 100 years of archival footage together with the stories of people whose lives have been affected by the border.

Saying 'give them independence already' is all well and good, but it completely ignores the facts. NI is full of horrible people on both sides of the political and religious divide and half of them, who are just as hate-filled as the others, do not want Ireland to be united. If you see a simple answer then you do not understand the question. There is no simple solution, sadly.
A border that should never have been and will one day be gone for good.

I live in South Africa. I am accused by Afrikaners of being a RooiNeck (Red Neck) - the color the British necks became in the harsh sun here when they colonized. BUT they do not understand. Being Irish I hate the British as much as do the Afrikaners and others.
