The Quiet Girl

Nine-year-old Cait (Catherine Clinch) is neglected by her pregnant mother, boorish father and louder siblings. At school, she feels ignored. But things change when her father takes her to live with her mother’s cousin for the summer. Eibhlín (Carrie Crowley) and her farmer husband Seán (Andrew Bennett) take Cait in to alleviate her parent’s financial woes.

The screening will be accompanied by an introduction + Q&A with Dr Sorcha Ní Fhlainn (Manchester Metropolitan University)
