Ten-year-old Alessandra Fleming, over from Perth in Australia, was walking around the exhibition room in Belfast City Hall listening to her mother Christina explaining about the Disappeared.
Quietly and with a young girl’s solemnity, she took in the detail written on the 7ft x 4ft exhibition boards about the 17 people who were abducted, killed and secretly buried in bogs and beaches in different parts of the island.
