The Quiet Girl (12A) & An Irish Goodbye - Both films Presented by Harrogate Film Society
Rural Ireland 1981. This film tells the story of a quiet, neglected young girl, Cáit, who is sent away for the summer from her dysfunctional family to live with "her mother's people". These are Seán and Eibhlín Cinnsealach; a middle-aged couple she has never met. Slowly, in the care of this couple, Cáit blossoms and discovers a new way of living, but in this house where affection grows and there are meant to be no secrets, she discovers one.
Trivia - The first-ever film in the Irish language to be shortlisted for an Oscar (Best International Film).
We are pleased to present a double bill and include the first Oscar and BAFTA winning Irish short in 20 years.
