About this Event
Come to the launch of Féile na mBan 2025 for this special screening of 'MRS. ROBINSON' - an appropriate opening to the festival with a film documenting one of Ireland's most important female leaders.
A reforming constitutional lawyer and senator in her early career, Mary Robinson detonated an electoral earthquake by winning the Irish Presidential vote in 1990. Later, as a crusading UN High Commissioner, she built a lasting legacy; fearlessly challenging perpetrators of human rights abuses all over the world. To this day, she exerts power and leadership as the Chair of The Elders; the independent group of global leaders (founded by Nelson Mandela) who work for peace, justice and human rights. As an influential global voice, Mary Robinson is also spearheading Project Dandelion: a women-led climate justice campaign.
Directed by Aoife Kelleher (One Million Dubliners) the film allows Mary Robinson, a highly articulate and astute commentator, to tell her story, in her own words, for the first time.
