#187 | Sinéad O'Shea | Director (Pray For Our Sinners - In Cinemas Now)
Paul and Mia sit down with director Sinéad O Shea to chat about her fascinating career and her stunning new feature documentary. Pray For Our Sinners tells the story of a group of citizens who resisted the status quo of systematic brutality against women and children when the Catholic church was at the height of its power in Ireland. We strongly urge you to catch this one in the cinema if you can.
