Set in war-torn Northern Ireland in a hard-pressed Protestant ditrict, MacLavertys Cal mixes the somehow predictable love affair between representatives of the two opposing sides with the tragedy of the political situation. ... If anything, Cal can claim its righteous place alongside those other works which deal with ideological prejudice as the root cause of an unbridgeable social and emotional gap between characters: East is east and wet is west and neer the twain shall meet, or things to that effect. ...
Cal played by John Lynch in a very impressive film debut is a 19 year old unemployed Catholic who is reluctantly drawn into the dangerous and violent world of violent Republicanism becoming an accomplice in the murder of a Protestant policeman.
