In the vibrant yet turbulent backdrop of modern-day Belfast, "What Did You Do For Ireland, Da?" unfolds the poignant story of Jamie, a 17-year-old boy from the New Lodge area. Caught between the remnants of past conflicts and the hopes for a brighter future, Jamie is on a misguided quest, driven by his desire to make his republican grandfather proud, support his agoraphobic grandmother, and ease the financial burdens on his struggling mother. Jamie becomes entangled with a new dissident IRA group, believing that selling drugs to fund their cause will pave the way for a united Ireland and prove his worth to his family. As he delves deeper into this clandestine world, he faces moral dilemmas, threats from rival gangs, and the constant scrutiny of an increasingly fractured community. Ultimately, "What Did You Do For Ireland, Da?" is a stirring exploration of identity, belonging, and the price of dreams built on misguided ideals. As Jamie's efforts to honour his family's legacy lead to unforeseen consequences, he must confront the true meaning of freedom and the cost of his actions on those he loves.
