Lyra McKee, a committed journalist and activist for LGBTQ+ rights, was born in Northern Ireland during the period known as the "ceasefire baby" generation. Tragically, at the young age of 29, she was shot while covering a riot in Derry. Director Millar offers an intimate and powerful exploration of the state of "post-conflict" Northern Ireland, a quarter-century after the signing of the Good Friday Agreements. Through McKee's life and death, the film sheds light on the ongoing struggle for peace and understanding in a region still grappling with its troubled past.
