利亚姆·尼森因2017年《纽约时报》的一篇报道而深受触动,该报道披露了爱尔兰图姆圣玛丽母婴之家的骇人丑闻,促使他首次担任制片人制作电影《失落的图姆儿童》。1这部由弗兰克·贝里执导、莫妮卡·多兰主演的影片讲述了业余历史学家凯瑟琳·科雷斯多年坚持不懈地揭露真相的故事。1科雷斯曾是一名纺织厂秘书,后转向本地历史研究,她的调查最终曝光了修女对儿童的系统性虐待和忽视。1
这家机构在1925年至1961年间有796名婴幼儿死亡,遗骸被埋入无标记的万人坑。1法医考古队自去年开始进行挖掘工作,已发现99具婴幼儿遗骨。1电影已于7月在戛纳电影节获得最佳爱尔兰电影奖,本周在爱尔兰上映,下月将在英国公映。1
Actor Liam Neeson has ventured into film production for the first time, moved by a 2017 New York Times report on the Tuam mother-and-baby home scandal in Ireland 1. The resulting film, "The Lost Children of Tuam," chronicles the decades-long investigation by amateur local historian Catherine Corless into systematic abuse and neglect of children by nuns, which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of infants buried in unmarked graves 1.
Catherine Corless, a former textile factory secretary turned independent researcher, pursued her investigation over many years 1. At Saint Mary's Mother and Baby Home in Tuam, County Galway, 796 infants died between 1925 and 1961 and were interred in an unmarked cemetery 1. Forensic archaeologists have since begun excavations, uncovering 99 infant remains to date 1. Directed by Frank Berry and featuring Monica Doolan, the film opened in Irish cinemas this week, with a United Kingdom release scheduled for next month 1. The production earned the Best Irish Film award at the Cannes Film Festival in July 1.
