Documentary

In international political conflict, deals are not brokered by national leaders but by “backroom players” who are hidden from the spotlight. Enter Padraig O’Malley, recovering alcoholic and negotiator of peace. An excellent mediator, the only person whose trauma he cannot alleviate is his own. Filmmaker James Demo expertly merges the public and private personas of an extraordinary man.
