Dermot Martin goes to Dublin with Michael Nyman and Rosetta Life to 
unearth the true story of his Uncle Tom, who took part in the legendary Easter Rising against the British. Nyman’s music sets the tone for both Dermot’s personal quest and an elegiac animation of Nyman photographs taken in Dublin’s GPO. Two wonderful movies about lost causes, cancer, and post offices.
