Il vento che accarezza l'erba (2006)
Irlanda, 1920: i guerriglieri indipendentisti si preparano ad affrontare l'offensiva delle armate di invasione dell'esercito britannico. Damien, giovane studente di medicina, per spirito patriottico decide di lasciare gli studi e unirsi al fratello Teddy nella lotta per la libertà. Mentre i combattenti irlandesi, superiori per audacia e coraggio, sembrano avere la meglio, le parti belligeranti concordano un trattato che ponga fine al massacro. L'interruzione delle ostilità con la Gran Bretagna e la controversa adesione al trattato, spingono il paese sul baratro della guerra civile, poiché parte degli indipendentisti irlandesi non vuole ottemperare a un accordo che dispone concessioni solo parziali. Damien e Teddy diventano nemici giurati, mettendo a dura prova gli affetti familiari e le rispettive convinzioni politiche.
