Absolutely loving the Manchán Magan train journey across Europe. Puts ne in the perfect frame of mind to start the week. Manchan visited us in the Irish Film Institute Archive for another series many years ago and was a true gent.

Thank you Margo Harkin for this incredibly powerful gift. #Stolen should be mandatory viewing in all schools on the island. Thinking of all those affected by the cruelty of this state/church nexus.

Respectful, powerful, heartbreaking filmmaking from the incomparable Margo Harkin. Those who suffered within this inhumane system are allowed to tell their stories with dignity. I hope this film gives them the peace the State investigation didn't.
