Based on the novella “Foster” by Claire Keegan, The Quiet Girl is a 2022 Irish coming-of-age drama set in Rural Ireland in 1981. Nine-year-old Cait is sent away from her overcrowded, dysfunctional family to live with distant cousins for the summer. Quietly struggling at school and at home, she has learned to hide in plain sight from those around her. By the end of the summer, she discovers an important lesson about the transformative power of love and the meaning of family.
Post-film discussion will be held immediately following the screening.
