"A stirring reflection of a buried tragedy" - Variety

In rural Ireland, amateur historian Catherine Corless begins researching a former institution for unmarried mothers and their children,  she stumbles upon evidence pointing towards a deeply troubling past. Refusing to let the questions go, she embarks on a painstaking investigation, putting her in conflict with the Church, the State, and the local town. As the resistance mounts, and unsettling discoveries emerge, her determination challenges powerful institutions, exposing a hidden chapter of Ireland's past that many would rather keep hidden.

Based on a true story, and featuring a powerful performance from Monica Dolan, The Lost Children of Tuam is a deeply moving portrait of one woman’s fight for justice.
