Turner Prize winning artist Steve McQueen’s feature debut – a harrowing, unflinching portrait of IRA member Bobby Sands’s time in the Maze prison in Northern Ireland, chronicling his many abuses at the hands of the guards, as well as his various protests, including his fatal hunger strike – is a blood-stained, shit-smeared masterpiece, which somehow manages to find poetry and sensual beauty in amongst a barrage of images of hate and violence.
