Set in Ireland in 1960's, four women, given into the custody of the Madgalene Sisterhoood Asylum, work in a laundry under the strict supervision of the nuns, who break their wills through sadistic punishments.

The triumphant story of three extraordinary women whose courage to defy a century of injustice would inspire a nation! Abandoned by society and cast out by their families for crimes they did not commit, these women found themselves stripped of their liberty and dignity and condemned to indefinite sentences of manual labor. Within the church-run Magdalene Laundries, these women were forced into unbearable institutional servitude in order to cleanse themselves of the "sins" of which they had been accused.
