Storyline: Ballygar, Ireland, 1967. A hard-knocks community in outer Dublin
marches to its own beat, rooted in traditions of loyalty, faith and togetherness.
There's just one tantalising dream for the women of Ballygar to taste freedom
and escape the gauntlet of domestic life: to win a pilgrimage to the sacred
French town of Lourdes. And with a little benevolent interference from their
cheeky and rebellious priest, close friends Lily, Eileen, Dolly and Sheila are
the 'lucky' few to win this ticket of a lifetime at their riotous local raffle night.

Cast: Maggie Smith, Kathy Bates, Laura Linney, Stephen Rea
