The film Sinners (2002) had its UK release 23 years ago today. To mark the occasion, read Sandra Costello’s article in Aigne 10 (2024): aigne.ucc.ie/index.php/aigne…. She examines how effectively Sinners and The Magdalene Sisters (2002) critique the systems they portray.

Sandra's article is an important contribution to discussions on Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries and their portrayal in film. Delighted to feature this insightful work—congratulations!
I'm so excited to have my article "Encounters with the Past through Melodrama: Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries on Screen" published by @Aigne_Journal. Thanks so much for everything especially @NoreenKane16 for guiding me through the process.
