Route Irish (2010)
Film Synopsis
In September 2004, Fergus, a former SAS operative, persuades his childhood friend Frankie to join his team of security agents in Baghdad, for a monthly salary of 12 thousand pounds. The city is still in the grip of terror, despite the billions of American dollars that are being showered onto it. In September 2007, Frankie is killed on the Route Irish, the most dangerous road in Baghdad. Guilt-stricken, Fergus rejects the official account of his friend's death and returns to Liverpool to launch his own enquiry.© James Travers
