Philomena (2013)
A retired Irish nurse enlists the help of a journalist to find the son she was forced to give up for adoption fifty years earlier while living in a convent. The pair travel from Ireland to America, following scant clues and facing institutional obstruction. Their journey becomes a profound exploration of faith, forgiveness, and a mother's enduring love, contrasting her gentle nature with the journalist's cynical worldview.
