The Snapper - Part 5 of 7

The Snapper is a 1993 Irish television film which was directed by Stephen Frears and starred Tina Kellegher and Colm Meaney. The film is based on the novel by Irish writer Roddy Doyle, about the Rabbitte family and their domestic adventures.
Young Sharon Curley becomes pregnant, but refuses to tell anyone who the father is. She decides to keep the baby ("snapper") and her family, each in their own way, eventually decides to support her. Her father particularly studies up on childbirth and female anatomy (with gratifying results for his wife as a bonus).
It turns out that Sharon's friend's father, Georgie Burgess, got her pregnant by taking advantage of her while she was drunk. Sharon's story is that it was a Spanish sailor, but the whole town suspects the truth. (wikipedia)
