Dir: Tim Mielants | Ireland, Belgium | 2024 | 98 mins
Cast | Cillian Murphy, Emily Watson, Michelle Fairley, Eileen Walsh
Oscar winner Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) delivers another outstanding performance in Tim Mielants’ piercing drama based on Claire Keegan’s best-selling novella, fully channelling the quiet tension and live emotion of her prose.
Ireland, 1985: In the months leading up to Christmas, coalman and family man Bill Furlong (Murphy) discovers startling secrets kept by the local convent. Deeply conflicted, Bill reaches a breaking point that forces him to confront both his own past and the complicit silence of a small Irish town under the control of the Catholic Church led locally by Mother Superior Sister Mary (Emily Watson – Breaking the Waves).
