Philomena

  • Log in or register to post comments

In a moving blend of drama and comedy, an Irish elderly woman named Philomena Lee searches for her son who was given up for adoption over 50 years ago. The story begins when, upon learning that she has kept a secret her whole life, Philomena decides it's time to find the son who was taken from her. With the help of cynical journalist Martin Sixsmith, who is at a low point in his career, they embark on an emotional journey that will take them from rural England to the streets of Washington, D.C.

As they progress in their investigation, they face the cold indifference of the Church, which facilitated the adoption, as well as the dark secrets surrounding Philomena's past. However, their quest is tinged with moments of humor and the unexpected, as the relationship between Philomena and Martin evolves from a tense collaboration to a genuine friendship.

As they unravel the story of separation and pain, they also delve into broader themes of love, faith, and redemption. This journey becomes not only a search for a lost son but also a personal discovery that redefines the lives of both protagonists. With twists that touch both the heart and the funny bone, the two will find answers that change their lives forever.
