Michael Collins hitman 'speaks from the grave' in Easter Rising film

One of Michael Collins' hitmen has become a voice from the grave in a new animated film telling the story of being a 14-year-old boy soldier in the Easter Rising.

Film-makers created foot tall puppets and miniature sets of the GPO and St Stephen's Green in Dublin to depict Vinny Byrne's role alongside 1916 rebel leader Thomas MacDonagh in the Jacob's biscuit factory.
