00:00I have to do a presentation for class.
00:04On what?
00:05Something local.
00:10As with any research,
00:13you should ask why.
00:16Good morning, sister.
00:18I'm a history student from Tuom.
00:20I'm writing an essay on the mother and baby home.
00:25Would any of the nuns who work there be free to talk?
00:28The sisters were caring for those children.
00:32No books.
00:33Hardly any photos.
00:35We don't have any records like that.
00:37You don't?
00:38Well, nor do the balance of course and nor do the Galway County Council who said you did.
00:43What are you raking all this up for?
00:46It's just for an essay.
00:49That's all that's left of the home.
00:52Where the bones were found.
00:55Bones.
01:01They were dying at a rate of one child every fortnight.
01:05And no burial records.
01:08We're asking you to please stop.
01:11Are you denying it, sister?
01:13This could get big now.
01:16Are you able for that?
01:18Why are you doing this?
01:21I'm concerned with the truth.
01:30When I think of the little children, what they went through.
01:35Water is a hole for tears.
01:39Even though the church and the state have abandoned those children, we haven't.
01:47And I'm tired of waiting for them to do the right thing.
01:51For a few things, sorry.
01:58I'm tired of waiting for that.
02:00Ed's in the end.
