Returning to the screen for his first role since his Oscar-winning performance in Oppenheimer, Cillian Murphy is outstanding in this adaptation of Claire Keegan's Booker Prize nominated novel, Small Things Like These.

Christmas 1985. Bill Furlong (Murphy) is a well-respected and liked coal miner, and a devoted father to five daughters. One morning, while setting off for his deliveries, he accidentally discovers a disturbing secret that threatens to break the quiet and understated facade of his small town. Torn between his own moral compass and the risks of going against the convent, Bill uncovers the shocking truths that lie beneath the surface of everything he's known.

Featuring a commanding performance from Emily Watson (Gosford Park, Punch-Drunk Love, Chernobyl), Small Things Like These is a quiet, gripping drama that questions faith, society, and our commitment to the cause.

★★★★ "An absorbing, committed drama." - The Guardian
