The Quiet Girl
Colm Bairéad / IE, 2022 / 94 min.
Colm Bairéad’s Irish-spoken, coming-of-age story about the neglected 9-year-old girl Cáit demonstrates that even a modest film can leave an indelible impression. She flourishes after moving in with foster parents in the countryside, while in the background a secret smoulders.
Nominated for an Oscar in the Best International Feature Film category, a first for an Irish-spoken film. A crystal clear storyline, natural acting by the young lead Catherine Clinch, camerawork that expansively captures the colours and atmosphere of the Irish countryside. It’s with these qualifications that Colm Bairéad’s first feature accumulated some 14 other prizes over the past year.
