A stunning film - Please go! (and well put Orla!)

[Film Ireland @FilmIreland]

"One does not expect to leave such a film uplifted. And yet, even as the darkest undercurrents in recent Irish history are interrogated, this film offers an avenue for hope."

What Frank Berry & his creative team have done is profound.

The Lost Children of Tuam not only captures the weight of the harrowing injustice, but manages to celebrate the humanity of everyone who faced it.

Awards may be coming but this needs to be taught in schools.

For. Fecks. Sake. This guy was the head of a children’s arts organisation for 3 years AFTER being in Epstein’s little back book… and potentially might get very substantial state funding to build a giant man to look out over the 12k homeless in the city.
