Oscar winner Cillian Murphy delivers a stunning performance as devoted father Bill Furlong in this film based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Claire Keegan. While working as a coal merchant to support his family, he discovers disturbing secrets kept by the local convent - and uncovers truths of his own - forcing him to confront his past and the complicit silence of a small Irish town controlled by the Catholic Church.

Reviews

KUNR (Reno, NV)

Robin Holabird

Told from the perspective of a man whose own mother barely escaped the system, the story’s deceptive simplicity belies its title: small things like these actually represent giant issues.

What I think makes this such a good film is that its theme is timeless and is not exclusive to one country. [Full review in Spanish]

Quiet, somber and unflinchingly intimate, Small Things Like These confronts Ireland’s Magdalene laundries with sorrowful restraint. Cillian Murphy's silent torment anchors a film more concerned with ethical reckoning than catharsis.

Mielants thus lends a gloomy and lugubrious tone to the form and content of his film: to his character, played with a fascinating depth of physicality and gaze by the formidable Cillian Murphy...[Full review in Spanish]

... it's beautiful in form, but devastating in substance...[Full review in Spanish]
