BROOKLYN

Director: JOHN CROWLY

111 mins, Ireland, 2015, Drama/Romance


Adapted from Colm Tóibín’s best-selling novel with a script by Nick Hornby, Brooklyn tells the profoundly moving story of Eilis Lacey (Saoirse Ronan), a young Irish immigrant navigating her way through 1950s Brooklyn. Lured by the promise of America, Eilis departs Ireland for New York City. Her initial homesickness quickly diminishes as a fresh romance sweeps her off her feet. But soon her new vivacity is disrupted by her past, and Eilis must choose between two countries and the lives that exist within.

This screening is in collaboration with the LOVEMOVIES.IE and Industry Trust for IP Awareness Ireland
