This is a gripping and true story about a young man's journey from a hero to an accused war criminal, the determined lawyers behind him, and their search for truth in the fog of war. Anthony Boyle plays the real-life soldier Brian Wood, and Toby Jones plays the tenacious human rights lawyer Phil Sheener, who accuses him of committing war crimes in Iraq. The two faced each other in a legal and moral conflict that took us from the battlefield - at the so-called Danny Boy checkpoint - to the courts, as well as one of the largest public investigations in British history, the Al Swedi investigation. Memory, evidence, and trauma collide, and Brian finds himself between war and illegal killings. After serving in Iraq and years of legal investigation, can he face up to his family again and become the husband, father, and son they need? "Danny Boy" is an urgent and thought-provoking drama that questions our demands on those who fight and kill for our country. Danny Boy is produced by the BBC's Expectations. The film was written by Robert Jones, a British Academy of Film and Television Arts Award winner, and directed by Sam Miller. Alex Ferns, Leah McNamara, Pauline Turner, Kieran Sonia Savar, and Tom Vaughn Lawlor also starred. The executive producers are Colin Barr and Susan Hoth of "Expectations," and Lucy Ritchie, Joe McClellan, and Claire Sillery of the BBC.
