Jessica Doherty's documentary tells the story of artist Susan, who was born in the Bessborough mother and baby home.
The judges had this to say of the powerful film -
“This quietly compelling film was technically superb - with an engaging, well-produced protagonist, and a narrative arc that gripped throughout. Poetic, hypnotic, charming: a simple story, beautifully told."
Following the screening we will hear from commissioning editors from our major broadcasters, with advice on how to pitch your project.
