Oscar-winner Cillian Murphy delivers a stunning performance as devoted father in this adaptation of the best-selling Claire Keegan novel.
While working as a coal merchant to support his family, Bill Furlong (Cillian Murphy) discovers disturbing secrets kept by the local convent — and uncovers truths of his own — forcing him to confront his past and the complicit silence of a small Irish town controlled by the Catholic Church.
"I was so rapt, so caught up in this film, that I wasn’t aware that it was going to be the ending until the screen faded to black. It is an absorbing, committed drama." – Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
