BERNADETTE: NOTES ON A POLITICAL JOURNEY

Picture
​LEILA DOOLAN 
​2011

4TH NOV | ULSTER MUSEUM LECTURE THEATRE | 
88 MIN | 2PM | £3
SECOND CHANCE CINEMA PRESENT...​

Winner of the International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival in Glasgow and the Best Feature Documentary prize at the Galway Film Fleadh, Lelia Doolan’s account of the tumultuous political career of Northern Irish activist and feminist, Bernadette Devlin McAliskey, atmospherically conveys the complex and volatile environment, both personal and political, in which she rose to power.

Benefiting from a wealth of highly-charged archive footage, particularly from the most thoroughly recorded period of Devlin’s career, when she was elected MP for Mid-Ulster in 1969 as a 21-year-old student, the historical material is interspersed with extracts from a series of more recent interviews.

This film is screening as part of ‘Hear Her Voice’, a series of events highlighting women within the collections of the Ulster Museum, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Representation of the People Act, which marks the first milestone in the journey of women’s suffrage, the right to vote in political elections
