Thought it was pretty good,it's about Irish peace keepers in the Congo.
 
Saw it on Netflix, rather eye opening in regard to UN's Daj Hammerskold who has always been portrayed as "saintly" in his dealings with the Third World and end of Colonialism. Heroic stand of Irish peacekeepers betrayed by superiors and politicians from both sides.Memorable as a tale of futility of a "world organization" when faced with national agendas
