Small Things Like These takes place over Christmas in 1985, when devoted father and coal merchant Bill Furlong discovers startling secrets kept by the convent in his town, along with some shocking truths of his own. The film reveals truths about Ireland's Magdalene laundries -horrific asylums run by Roman Catholic institutions from the 1820s until 1996, ostensibly to reform "fallen young women."

Adapted from the Booker Prize nominated novel by Claire Keegan.

‘Small Things Like These is a tight-lipped Irish drama even more suffused with sadness than the logline implies and shouldered with hypnotic grace by a very special Cillian Murphy in his first post-Oppenheimer role.’ Tim Robey, Daily Telegraph

‘It’s subtle but resonant, intimate but emotionally expansive and at every step crisply unsentimental.’ David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter

Mae'r ffilm wedi'i gosod adeg y Nadolig ym 1985, pan mae Bill Furlong, tad annwyl a masnachwr glo, yn darganfod cyfrinachau syfrdanol lleiandy'r dref, ynghyd â rhai gwirioneddau brawychus am ei fywyd ei hun. Mae'r ffilm yn datgelu gwirioneddau am olchdai Magdalene Iwerddon - llochesi erchyll dan reolaeth sefydliadau Catholig o'r 1820au tan 1996, i ddiwygio "menywod ifanc pechadurus."
