Oscar-winner Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) and Oscar-nominees Emily Watson (Punch-Drunk Love) and Ciarán Hinds (Belfast) star in this adaptation of Irish author Claire Keegan's novella.
It is 1985 in the run-up to Christmas in a small town in County Wexford, Ireland. Bill Furlong toils as a coal merchant to support himself, his wife and his five daughters. Early one morning while out delivering coal at the local convent, he makes a discovery that forces him to confront his past and the complicit silence of a town controlled by the Catholic Church.
