The second of two films about children in Northern Ireland.

In 1974 a programme called Children in Crossfire examined the lives of young children caught up in the troubles of Belfast and Londonderry.
Today the troubles continue, but the children are eight years older. In tonight's film we show what has happened to some of the children featured in Children in Crossfire, whose futures seemed so blighted. Among them Richard, blinded by a stray rubber bullet at the age of 12; 9-year-old Paul, in the front line of the Creggan riots; Billy, desperate to join the paramilitary UDA and Mary, on phenobarbitone in the battlefield called Divis Flats. Have they survived? And even if they have, can their minds survive a childhood of everyday violence and death?
