Blue Road - The Edna O'Brien Story with Sinead O'Shea in conversation with Susan McKay

About

Blue Road – The Edna O'Brien Story is a candid portrait of one of the world's greatest and most charismatic writers: Irish author Edna O'Brien. Her books were banned and burned in Ireland. In London and New York she had illicit love affairs, hosted star-studded parties and made and lost a fortune. In her final year, aged 93, she shared her diaries and gave one last interview to filmmaker Sinéad O'Shea about her extraordinary life. Her diaries are read aloud by Oscar-nominated actress Jessie Buckley.

A discussion and Q&A with the film's director Sinéad O'Shea will follow the film, led by Susan McKay.
