Ten years ago, it was said that the murder of Veronica Guerin was a watershed and that the time had come to put the criminals behind bars. In the years that have passed, Limerick and Dublin have become mini versions of New York's Bronx -- flooded with drugs, and controlled by armed gangs. Murders, manslaughter and attempted murders have rocketed, and attacks on ordinary members of the public are climbing, as drug addicts rob and mug to fund their habits.The nation was not bothered when drug dealers killed drug dealers, but as we all know, that time is long passed as evidenced by recent attacks on an unarmed Garda and the ordinary person in the street, who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.Criminals today don't place any value on life. The law has become the proverbial ass, with soft sentencing, poor detection rates and swinging door policies. Gang alliances and blood feuds are fuel for violent Ireland where there seems to be No Justice.

Shot in black and white using original footage, it is a thought-provoking story about what happens when people wont trust each other, resulting in a continuing circle of unnecessary violence."We've signed a 4 year world-wide distribution deal with them. It's very difficult to get shorts out there so that audiences can see them. We are very pleased to be working with Quat Media as it adds an additional pipleline for our short titles" said John Phelan of Bootstrap Films.
