<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US">- WINNER: Best Irish Film, Galway Film Fleadh - <br> - OFFICIAL SELECTION: Toronto International Film Festival - <o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">From producer Liam Neeson, this powerful true story of an amateur historian’s tenacious pursuit of truth won the Best Irish Film award at this year’s Galway Film Fleadh.<br> <br> The film follows Catherine Corless (BAFTA-winner Monica Dolan, <i>Days of the Bagnold Summer</i>) as she begins researching “Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home”, a former institution for unmarried mothers and their children in Tuam, County Galway.<br> <br> Catherine soon uncovers one of the darkest chapters in modern Irish history, a long-buried story of neglect and loss. Faced with deafening silence from the church and state, she embarks on a campaign for justice, confronting deep wounds that continue to shape Ireland today.<br> <br> Monica Dolan turns in a phenomenally convincing performance as Corless, worthy of her compassionate, intelligent real-life counterpart. <b><i>The Lost Children of Tuam</i></b> is a moving testimony to the power of perseverance, and a reminder that change can begin with one person.<o:p></o:p></span></p>BiographyPT1H24M2026-11-05IEenMonica Dolan
