ABOUT

In her best performance yet, Saoirse Ronan plays Eilis Lacey, an intelligent girl who, with few prospects of a decent job in 1950s Co Wexford, ups sticks and sails to America. Working in a department store and living in a girls’ rooming house in Brooklyn, Eilis overcomes her loneliness and gradually finds her feet. But just when evening classes in book-keeping and a romance with an Italian-American plumber (Emory Cohen) are holding out the prospect of a brighter future, Eilis is summoned back home by a tragedy. Another romance begins, this time with the local publican’s son Jim (Domhnall Gleeson), and Eilis must choose between two cultures.
