His friend and ministry Michael -Liam Neeson- Collins is left alone in charge of the rebellion. He soon understands that the only way to defeat Britain is to begin a guerilla war.

Eamon De Valera, jealous of Collins's new celebrity, sends him to London in order to negotiate the treaty with Britain.
