Plot Synopsis
Inspired by Martin McGartland’s shocking real life story, Martin (Jim Sturgess) is a young lad from west Belfast in the late 1980s who is recruited by the British Police to spy on the IRA. He works his way up the ranks as a volunteer for the IRA whilst feeding information to his British handler (Sir Ben Kingsley) and saving lives in the process; until one day he is exposed, captured and tortured to within an inch of his life. He escapes dramatically by throwing himself from a tower block window and is still in hiding today.
