Based on Una Troy's charming novel, We Are Seven, She Didn't Say No depicts the lives of the Monaghan family, six children and their unmarried mother Bridget, in the town of Doon, County Waterford. The children's various fathers are local men - who uneasily attempt to find a way to rid the town of their embarrassment. The film features many Abbey Theatre actors and was scheduled for production in Ireland until permission was refused and production was moved to Cornwall in England. An enjoyable piece of whimsy, on its release the film was banned in Ireland for moral reasons.
