Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Raonaid Murray's murder became Ireland's 'where were you' moment, comparable to JFK in American consciousness. The film deliberately avoids the sensationalism that defined 2000s Irish tabloid coverage.
Director Graham Jones spent years resisting producers who wanted talking heads and reconstruction footage; the animated still-photography approach was his non-negotiable condition for making the film at all.
