Shoulder to Shoulder is a mobile film exhibition by the ‘Museum of Conflict’. The exhibition is to raise awareness, create understanding and conversation about the conflict that continues in Northern Ireland.

As the Troubles are so complex it can be a difficult subject to give information on, the film uses the sport of rugby as a catalysis to start a conversation to understand the sectarian violence. Northern and Southern Ireland; despite being separate counties at war; always have, and still do, play as one united rugby team.
