In this charged courtroom drama, a poor father (Pierce Brosnan) butts heads with the Catholic Church and accepted Irish law in 1953 Dublin. When the wife of Desmond Doyle (Brosnan) abandons the family, social workers declare him an unfit father and place his children in orphanages. But a determined Doyle decides to take on both august institutions. Julianna Margulies, Sophie Vavasseur.
