Here's a list of films that are screening with Flicks in the Sticks.
Oscar winner Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) delivers another outstanding performance in Tim Mielants’ piercing drama based on Claire Keegan’s best-selling novella, fully channelling the quiet tension and live emotion of her prose. Ireland, 1985: In the months leading up to Christmas, coalman and family man Bill Furlong (Murphy) discovers startling secrets kept by the local convent. Deeply conflicted, Bill reaches a breaking point that forces him to confront both his own past and the complicit silence of a small Irish town under the control of the Catholic Church, led locally by Mother Superior Sister Mary (Emily Watson – Breaking the Waves). “An absorbing, committed drama” ★★★★ The Guardian “A quiet film with fire raging in its heart” The Next Best Picture
