  • You can now buy a copy of The Forgotten Maggies from the website Magdalene Survivors together. Anyone interested in human rights, Irish politics or social issues in general. then this is a must see.

  • ... There is One Cure for ALL economic, political, civic, and social evils, and that is a Scientific, Moneyless, Consumer-Based Economy that will build Ideal Private Cities. These whining beggars should become Civilized Humans and send Family Agents to local Consumer Congresses with instructions to place Lifetime Consumer Orders with Industry and receive in return Lifetime Labor Contracts whose performance will pay for those orders.

  • There's a Facebook Campagin To help The Magdalene women as they are releasing a Charity single. We need your help, GO ON TO FACEBOOK and Look for the group Magdalene Survivors Together... All the Information is there we NEED YOUR HELP... SPREAD THE WORD

  • i saw this in NY about a year or two ago...excellent interviews and important work.

  • I am so ANGRY at the Church right now. This is why no one goes too church any more its because the Pope is a FOOL WHY wont he say sorry. GOD must be so angry at the Pope over this.

  • I am beginning to despair that this film will ever be available in the USA.

  • Sad. These women need to be acknowledged by society. Saw the film tonight in Glor Ennis.

  • The people were bowed down and crushed by the weight of the religious dogma forced upon them. They were kept ignorant , deliberately, with threats of hellfire and damnation. Most of the population didnt even know much about the 2nd WW, they were too isolated on an island ruled by an inside terror. I know, I grew up there.

  • hi maureen its mary in london you were great sorry l didnt get to meet you all.maybe soon.keep fighting and take care

  • It Has taken the young people in Ireland to realise the true horror of what these women suffered. Lets hope they finally get Justice
