“The Flats” is an urgent documentary about the residents of the Catholic Belfast neighborhood of New Lodge who still live with the unresolved agony of the Troubles a quarter of a century on, including Joe McNally, an aging republican whose life is haunted by the traumatic childhood memory of his uncle’s murder by loyalists and a despairing sectarian thirst for revenge.

This grant, funded by the Legislation Initiative Program and administered out of the state’s Office of Child and Family Services, to provide educational and recreational programs and events for youth and adults in the community. The Legislative Initiative Program is funded by the New York State Legislature to support the efforts of the activities of eligible non-profit organizations.
