As a young footballer, Clare Shine seemed to have it all.

This is the story of a girl struggling to find her identity, a journey in search of confidence and self-belief and a remarkable recovery.
Irish rugby has produced many charismatic figures over its history. None more than Willie Anderson. Crossing The Line is the story of a life challenged by sectarianism, alcohol addiction, and personal tragedy. It is the story of a triumph over adversity.
