The Journey

Friday, June 16 - Thursday, June 29, 2017

Timothy Spall (Mr. Turner) and Colm Meaney (The Commitments) star in the true-life tale of negotiating peace in Northern Ireland.

A Scottish summit offers a last chance to come to an accord, but both men seem completely unmovable—until an unexpected trip opens up new hope.
