Adapted from the well-known novel by Edna O'Brien, this engaging account of growing up in 1950s Ireland takes us along two girls’ route from convent school to the big city. While discovering the pleasures and pitfalls of coming-of-age, clever Kate and naughty Baba’s friendship is put to the test.
Actresses “Maeve Germaine and Jill Doyle are splendid, cutting an irreverent swath through this lyrical romance, transforming guilty pleasures into innocent delights.” Time Out
Director: Desmond Davis
