A true story of young Irish adults and the personal sacrifices they made opposing the South African apartheid.
At Dunne’s Store, shop assistant Mary Manning refuses to sell a grapefruit, sticking to her union instructions not to handle South African goods, in protest of the country’s apartheid policies. Mary is immediately suspended, but it’s not long before she and nine of her colleagues band together & begin to strike.
'Strike!' tells the true story of a group of extraordinary young people standing up for what they believe in.
