PART documentary and part reconstruction, I, Dolours is the story of the late Dolours Price, who joined the IRA in the early 1970s. Maurice Sweeney’s film, released last year and now available on Netflix, is based on an interview with her by journalist Ed Moloney in 2010.

Price grew up in a Republican family in Belfast, one in which women, including  her mother and aunt, had taken active roles in the IRA. Like many of her generation, Price joined People’s Democracy to demand civil rights for Catholics but, after they were battered off the streets by Protestant police force the Royal Ulster Constabulary, she turned to militant Republicanism.

Price speaks candidly about her role in the IRA including working closely with Gerry Adams, transporting weapons and, most controversially, unmasking and eliminating informers. She claims that Adams ordered the killing of Jean McConville, a widowed mother of 10, a claim which he denies and the McConville family continue to dispute Price’s story that their mother was an informer.
