The Lost Children of Tuam

About this event
The film tells the real-life story of how, whilst researching the Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home in Tuam, County Galway, for a local historical society, history enthusiast Catherine Corless uncovered the devastating possibility that as many as 796 children had been buried in unmarked graves on the property.
The discovery began a campaign for justice for both victims and survivors of the home that has had a lasting impact on Ireland today.
