Small Things Like These

Set in a small Irish town in 1985, the film follows Bill Furlong, a coal merchant and family man who begins to uncover dark secrets about the local convent run by the Catholic Church. As he confronts the truth about the Magdalene laundries operating behind closed doors, he faces a profound moral choice that will define his character. Directed by Tim Mielants and adapted by Enda Walsh from Claire Keegan's novella, the film is a quietly devastating drama anchored by Cillian Murphy's acclaimed performance.
