Following on from his Oscar winning portrayal of Oppenheimer, Cillian Murphy stars in this gripping historical drama, based on a 2021 novel by Claire Keegan.
Murphy plays coal merchant Bill Furlong, a hard-working devoted father of five girls and living in the small Irish town of New Ross.
Set during the Christmas of 1985, Furlong uncovers disturbing secrets of the local convent’s heartless treatment of unmarried mothers and their babies. Furlong realises that the townsfolk are being controlled by the church, whilst also confronting shocking truths from his past.
