Synopsis

Margo lives a seemingly tranquil life by the Clifden coast, alongside her partner Jerry, and their life seems to have fallen into an organic, peaceful routine. But when she comes across a newspaper advertisement while sheltering from the rain in a local coffee shop, the life she's built threatens to come undone, as memories of her past flood her mind. Margo's spent years carefully distancing the past from the present, even leaving Jerry in the dark about her haunted past. But she can't seem to forget how a single Summer's day in 1965 defined her life. It was the day while only fifteen years old and pregnant, she was dropped off at the Coeur de Jesus convent. O' Human Child is a piercing, moving account of the Magdalene Laundries, and the ways in which trauma has lingered in the cracks of a society and its survivors.
