'While history is made up of big stories, it is understood best when we can hear the small, personal details.'
Award-winning director James Bluemel said he decided to hear the human stories of the conflict he grew up hearing about on the news.
He said: "The civil war was a particularly cruel time in Iraq. Hearing stories from Iraqis of how their friendships, families and neighbourhoods were ripped apart by sectarian killings made me think about a sectarian conflict which was much nearer to home. Heading into the process of filming for the series, James was concerned he would be asking contributors to remember things "cemented in their minds".
"By the time we arrived at that fateful day in 1972, Kate spoke eloquently, with genuine emotion and anger as she recalled what happened and how she felt," he explained.
