WATCH: The powerful trailer for RTÉ documentary Children Of The Troubles

Rory Cashin

It is dedicated to the 186 children who lost their lives during The Troubles.

RTÉ and Loosehorse TV have released the first trailer for their new documentary, Children Of The Troubles.

In the hour-long special, Joe Duffy will explore the lives and tragic deaths of children killed during the conflict in Northern Ireland, looking at the long-term impact on their families, friends and communities.

The documentary will draw on extensive original research by himself and Irish Times correspondent Freya McClements.

Duffy has set out to create a compelling new narrative of the conflict centred on the emotional testimony of those left behind, some of whom have never spoken about it before.

And the makers of the documentary have dedicated it to the 186 children who lost their lives during The Troubles.

Children Of The Troubles will air on RTÉ One on Monday 4 November at 9.35pm.
