The founder of the Irish Republican Army, the leader of the Northern Ireland freedom movement - Michael Collins, this film tells his story.

Collings, Bran, and Valale are three good brothers who licked their blood and vowed to fight for their country. They formed the Irish Volunteer Army (the predecessor of the Irish Republican Army), and let the mighty British Empire stab in the back. Collings, who organized many uprisings, gradually became the soul of the establishment of the Republic of Ireland. Vallarie took Bran to the United States to seek support at this chaotic but also hopeful moment. When he returned home, Collings had succeeded. A truce was reached with the United Kingdom, an autonomous Irish autonomous region was established, but allegiance to the Emperor was still required. Valale refused to accept it. The brothers who once fought side by side have since parted ways...


His life was born from the love of Ireland, but it also ended in the people he loved. Hands... Collins was shot by a radical youth in his hometown.

The history in the film is largely accurate, and the IRA split for a variety of reasons, but war-weariness and a desire for a normal life are what everyone needs, even a revolutionary.
