The screening of a documentary about hunger striker Bobby Sands will re-open old wounds. 66 Days starts this Friday in Enniskillen.
Ulster Unionist MP Tom Elliott says the showings will bring back memories of atrocities, such as the Poppy Day bombing.
However Sinn Fein Assemblyman, Sean Lynch, has defended the film, saying Bobby Sands was an internationally recognised figure, a writer and a poet.
Meanwhile the South East Fermanagh Foundation will screen its own film in response - it focuses on the hurt caused by the Troubles.
