For much of the time, the film is wordless. McQueen – the artist here making his feature film debut – gives us forensically filmed episodes: a rubber-suited prison worker pausing momentarily before hosing down a wall "decorated" with a spiral pattern of excrement; ointment being applied to Sands's hideous pressure sores. Often difficult, sometimes repulsive, this is nevertheless an unforgettable piece of filmmaking.

McQueen's brilliant film about the dispicable treatment of Irish Republican political prisoners at the hands of the shameful British State - viva Sands!
