Robert Nield

It's New Year's Eve in Thatcher's de-industrialising Britain. The scene is set at a seedy bar in Liverpool where a group of Irish Protestant and Irish Catholic pensioners will gather to clash and bash the new year in.

Roberto Nield, an Argentine writer and comedian, fled the military dictatorship and sought refuge in Colombia. Celebrated for his art, he faced imprisonment and exile, searching for redemption through his memories.
