Philomena has been released on DVD, and we've got five copies to give away to celebrate!
Philomena is the true story of one mother's search for her lost son.
Falling pregnant as a teenager in Ireland in 1952, Philomena Lee was sent to the convent of Roscrea to be looked after as a "fallen woman".
When her baby was only a toddler, he was whisked away by the nuns to America for adoption.
Philomena spent the next 50 years searching for him in vain.
Then she met Martin Sixsmith, a world-weary journalist as cynical as Philomena was trusting.
Together they set off for America on a journey that would not only reveal the extraordinary story of Philomena's son, but also the powerful bond that grew up between Philomena and Martin - a surprising relationship that was both profoundly moving and very funny.
The film is a bitter-sweet comedy, a compelling narrative of human love and loss, and a heart-breaking story that ultimately celebrates life.
We have five copies of Philomena to give away.
