In 1954 an Irish woman travelled to England to give birth to an illegitimate child. In 2024 her granddaughter, the filmmaker, traces her journey piecing together fragments of her story. Máthair (Mother) draws on a complex web of obfuscated information, from adoption administrative agencies, records of a Catholic Mother and Baby Home and chat-room conversations between strangers following the same archival trail. Máthair questions the institutions of religion, notions of motherhood, and a sense of place.
