TESTIMONY

Director: Aoife Kelleher

Testimony is a powerful documentary that follows the courageous fight for justice by survivors of Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries and Mother and Baby Homes. With the support of Justice for Magdalenes (JFM), these women expose decades of institutional abuse, from forced labour and family separations to state and church complicity. Their journey—from grassroots activism to delivering testimony at the UN—reveals both the resilience of survivors and the ongoing struggle for accountability.

Through unflinching honesty, Testimony demands justice, transparency, and recognition, ensuring these dark chapters in history are never forgotten.

The film comes to Dublin International Film Festival on 28th February 2025.
