For the first time, Ireland’s struggle for independence is brought vividly to life in colour. “Revolution in Colour” uses painstakingly restored and colourised newsreel footage and photographs to tell the story of Ireland in the early 20th century. From the fight for Home Rule and the rise of Unionist and Nationalist militias, to the 1916 Easter Rising and the political upheaval that followed, this documentary reveals a turbulent chapter in Irish history like never before. Written by historian Professor Eunan O’Halpin, this is the story of the years leading up to the 1918 general election—when Ireland stood on the brink of transformation and division.
