Lola Petticrew as Dolours Price raising her hand on FX's 'Say Nothing'.
In 1972, a single mother of 10 named Jean McConville was abducted by the Irish Republican Army and never brought back home. This devastating incident forever changed the lives of McConville's children, who later sought answers to their mother's disappearance. The case became well-known in the U.K. and was also examined through Patrick Radden Keefe's non-fiction bestseller Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland.
Led by Gerry Adams , the Price sisters and other republicans planted bombs, orchestrated sniper attacks, and killed some of their own — those who surrendered to the British intelligence and betrayed their trust — all with the hopes of setting Northern Ireland free from British occupation. Yet, as time goes on, these terrorist actions from her youth come back to haunt Price, who slowly begins to realize that her behavior and the cause she so proudly fought for weren't worth the outcome.
The well-paced screenwriting by Zetumer, Kirsten Sheridan, and Joe Murtaugh allows the mystery surrounding McConville's whereabouts to simmer in between segments of Price's trajectory. Leaving minor clues on display that point to the person guilty of what happened to the single mother, the storytelling is pieced together so meticulously that when we finally uncover the truth, it doesn't come off as obvious.
