Small Things Like These

Oscar winner Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) delivers another outstanding performance in Tim Mielants’ piercing drama based on Claire Keegan’s best-selling novella.

Ireland, 1985: in the months leading up to Christmas, coalman and family man Bill Furlong (Murphy) discovers startling secrets kept by the local convent.  Deeply conflicted, Bill reaches a breaking point that forces him to confront both his own past and the complicit silence of a small Irish town under the control of the Catholic Church, led locally by Mother Superior Sister Mary (Emily Watson).
