Rural Ireland. 1981. A quiet, neglected girl is sent away from her overcrowded, dysfunctional family to live with distant relatives for the summer. She blossoms in their care, takes pleasure from theIr attention and experiences a new sort of freedom. In this house where there are meant to be no secrets until she discovers one painful truth.

Based on the acclaimed story Foster by Claire Keegan, The Quiet Girl is a complex and delicate coming-of-age drama that explores questions of family, neglect and loss through the eyes of its young protagonist.
