- SynopsisDrama. In Ireland in 1981, young Cáit is sent to spend the summer with Seán and Eibhlín, away from the domestic disquiet at home. She takes to the settled atmosphere well, but then she learns something unexpected. (Synopsis)
- Work historyTitle note: The title appears onscreen in all lower-case, with the Irish Gaelic title first and the English title below, thus: an cailín ciúin the quiet girl Credits note: The credits appear onscreen in Irish Gelic only. Source note: The screenplay is based on 'Foster', a story [onscreen credit wording: 'scéal'] by Claire Keegan. This is sometimes translated as novel, but as published, 'Foster' is only around 88 pages, which would be considered short for a novel (though also long for a short story).
