25th Jan- Film + Q & A: Hillsborough

Venue: The Nerve Centre, Derry

Time: 7.30 pm

Admission £3

Written by Jimmy McGovern and Directed by Charles McDougall the award winning film is based on the real life events of April 1989, when 96 Liverpool football supporters were crushed to death during an F.A. Cup Semi-Final match against Nottingham Forest at Sheffield Wednesday’s Hillsborough Stadium.

This movie follows three Liverpudlian families before the match, during the tragedy and at the ensuing court battles which tried to decide who was to blame and what went wrong.

It was not just a film but a vital asset in the campaign for an inquiry that recently reported.

N.B . There will be a Q & A after the screening and we are honoured that Jenny Hicks has travelled from Liverpool to be present at this screening and the Coverup panel discussion tomorrow.  Jenny is a prominent member of the of the campaign for truth and  justice for the families of those who died.  She lost her two daughters in the Hillsborough disaster, Sarah was 19 years of age and Victoria just 15.
