The video features Firth as a father desperate to learn the truth about her daughter’s death, which involves him uncovering the mystery behind the Pan Am Flight 103 bombing. The true-life tragedy happened on December 21, 1988, when 259 passengers and crew were killed after the plane exploded.

Lockerbie: A Search for Truth hails from writers David Harrower and Maryam Hamidi, along with directors Otto Bathurst and Jim Loach. The cast also includes Catherine McCormack, Rosanna Adams, Jemma Carlton, Harry Redding, Sam Troughton, Mark Bonner, Ardalan Esmaili, and Selwa Jghalef. It is executive produced by Harrower, Gareth Neame, Nigel Marchant, Sam Hoyle, Liz Trubridge, Jim Sheridan, Kirsten Sheridan, and Oskar Slingerland, with Hamidi and Kaczynski serving as producers.

“In the wake of the disaster and his daughter’s death, Dr Jim Swire (Firth), is nominated spokesperson for the UK victims’ families, who have united to demand truth and justice. Traveling across continents and political divides, Jim embarks on a relentless journey that not only jeopardizes his stability, family, and life but completely overturns his trust in the justice system,” reads the synopsis.

“As the truth shifts under Jim’s feet, his view of the world is left forever changed. Exploring events from the disaster and its aftermath, Lockerbie: A Search For Truth provides an intimate account of a man, a husband, and a father who risks everything in memory of his daughter and the unflinching pursuit of truth and justice.”
