Set against the backdrop of late-1960s Northern Ireland, Kenneth Branagh’s Academy Award-winning Belfast is a deeply personal, heartwarming story told through the eyes of nine-year-old Buddy. As political turmoil enters his working-class neighborhood, Buddy finds joy and comfort in the love of his close-knit family, the magic of the movies, and his local community. Captivating, hilarious, and profoundly touching, this vibrant coming-of-age film is a unforgettable tribute to the power of family, hope, and home.
