Ireland 2022, directed by Colm Bairéad. Length: 96 min. with Catherine Clinch and others
When another baby arrives, an Irish girl who has been neglected by her family is sent to live with relatives over the summer vacation. There she experiences a warmth and affection that liberates her from her painful torpor. And yet even in the idyllic Irish countryside, there is pain and loss. This quiet, restrained film about a childhood and the poetry of a summer needs very little dialog and uses sensitive imagery to approach the perception of its main character. In a pleasantly unobtrusive way, the drama adds a rare narrative to cinema about the perspective of a young girl. Worth seeing from 14.
