Twice Shy: The heart wrenching abortion film Ireland needs to see
With Leo Varadkar stating last night that an abortion referendum will be held in Ireland next year, there's no better time for the release of Twice Shy.
The movie depicts a young couple travelling over to the UK to seek out an abortion, something many women in Ireland have had to go through.
The timely indie narrative features Ardal O'Hanlon and Pat Shortt, with the main roles being played by Shane Murray-Corcoran and Iseult Casey.
Twice Shy documents the ups and downs that the relationship faces on its dramatic journey to the abortion clinic, and will also have flashbacks of happier times in the romance.
The film also boasts a soundtrack with some of Ireland’s top musical talents including Ash, Gavin James, Republic of Loose and The Corrs.
It was filmed in Tipperary, Dublin and London, and has hit numerous festivals since its world debut at the Galway Film Fleadh last year.
Looking at the trailer, it's chilling and heart-wrenching, and we believe it needs to be seen by everyone in this country.
The thought-provoking movie will be released in Ireland on June 23, and you can watch the trailer below:
