Feature Film Based On True Events Surrounding Tuam Mother And Baby Home Seeks Cast

Title: The Lost Children of Tuam

Storyline: 'The Lost Children of Tuam' is a powerful feature film based on the heartbreaking true story of Catherine Corless’s discovery of a mass grave of approximately 800 infants and young children at the site of the former Mother and Baby Home in Tuam, County Galway.

The film aims to portray the emotional depth and historical impact of these real-life events, exploring the lives of the children and families affected, as well as the broader social issues surrounding the institutional abuse in Ireland’s past.

Through both speaking and non-speaking roles, the film will shed light on this dark chapter of Irish history, seeking to honour the memories of the lost children and spark essential conversation. It’s a deeply human story that will be handled with care and sensitivity.

This is a rare opportunity for local actors to take part in a significant production with real emotional weight, especially for those from Tuam and the surrounding Galway area.
