Irish movie "The Magdalene Sisters."

I watched Irish movie "The Magdalene Sisters."

The plot is based on the true story about Catholic Church in 1960's Ireland. Features four women who were taken to the Magdalene Sisterhood Asylum known as the Magdalene Laundries in order to atone for their "sins." The reason why they were taken to there doesn't seem reasonable, but that shows how Catholic Churh dominated the Irish society in that time.
It's not a delight plot at all and makes you feel bad a bit. But it's a good movie to know about the recent Irish society.
