Veteran English Radical Film Director Ken Loach`s Film "The Wind That Shakes the Barley" gives a new historical interpretation to the Irish Civil War and Engliah Imperialism. Scottish Scriptwriter Paul Laverty is no less radical, this 8` radio interview treats the political messages in the film and offers a critique of modern day Ireland since it became the neo liberal Celtic Tiger.
