- Built on the testimony of those who worked in Ireland's notorious Magdalene Laundries, this documentary tells the full, shocking story of a shameful system, created by the Irish State but supported by all levels of Irish society, which enslaved over 10,000 women for decades. The film bears witness to the women's experiences in their own words, before during and after their time in the laundries, and show how, even today, attempts are being made to try to silence them. We examine not only why and how the Magdalene phenomenon arose, but also how it was allowed to continue unchallenged for so long. At every level - family, parish and state - Irish society, at best, turned a blind eye; at worst, it supported, facilitated and even profited from the operation of these institutions, while perpetuating the stigma and shame of the women imprisoned there. At the heart of the film are the survivors, who are now trying to come to terms with the impact of those dark years, and the ongoing devastating repercussions it has had on them, their children and their families. We meet one survivor who is taking a landmark case to the UN Committee Against Torture. This time, in what amounts to a test case for all survivors of the laundries, the main target of her complaint will not be the nuns, but Ireland itself. This landmark documentary is a devastating indictment of the way that Church, State and Society conspired to lock up, silence and shame an entire generation of their own sisters and daughters. They are silent no longer and this is their story.

- Wexford Festival Opera zeigt die erste moderne Aufführung der Adaption von Shakespeares spätem Meisterwerk Der Sturm des französischen Komponisten Fromental Halévy. Es dirigiert Francesco Cilluffo, Regie führt Roberto Catalano. Rache liegt in der Luft. Ein tobendes Unwetter - vom Zauberer Prospero selbst herbeigeführt - lässt neapolitanische Aristokraten auf einer Insel stranden. So beginnt William Shakespeares Der Sturm und seine lyrische Bearbeitung durch Fromental Halévy. Sehr bald jedoch entfernt sich die Oper von der ursprünglichen Geschichte und widmet sich den jungen Liebenden Miranda und Ferdinand, wobei die Musik den Streit in Einigkeit zu wandeln vermag. Heute ist Halévy (ein französischer Komponist des 19. Jahrhunderts) vor allem für seine erfolgreiche Oper La Juive bekannt, obwohl er im Laufe seines Lebens etwa 40 Opern komponierte. Die Oper in drei Akten La Tempesta ist frei nach einem der letzten Stücke Shakespeares, Der Sturm, gestaltet. Da die Musik im Mittelpunkt des Stücks steht, ist es kaum verwunderlich, dass es mehr Opern inspiriert hat als jedes andere Werk Shakespeares. Darüber hinaus ist Halévys Version, die 1850 in London uraufgeführt wurde, ein wahrhaft europäisches Projekt: Der französische Komponist und sein Landsmann, der Librettist Eugène Scribe, interpretieren ein englisches Stück aus dem 16. Jahrhundert in Form einer italienischen Oper für ein englisches Publikum neu. Diese Produktion, mit der das 71. Wexford Festival Opera eröffnet wurde, steht unter der musikalischen Leitung von Francesco Cilluffo und wird vom Italiener Roberto Catalano inszeniert, der sein Debüt in Wexford gibt. Die Wexford Festival Opera möchte dem Tenor Giulio Pelligra dafür danken, dass er die Rolle des Fernando trotz seiner Erkrankung gesungen hat.
