The Irish Heritage Trust and Strokestown Park invite you to watch their “Famine Heroes” short film documenting Montreal’s Grey Nuns and the Great Hunger on Sunday, October 4th. The most powerful eyewitness accounts of the suffering of Famine emigrants in North America can be found in the annals of the Grey Nuns who cared for them in the fever sheds of Montreal.

Watch the story here.  

Join a post-show discussion with the film makers on Zoom on Sunday, October 4th at 7pm Irish Time, 2pm Eastern Standard Time in North America.
