An Irish Lullaby depicts humanties’ search for relevancy and fulfillment, set against the backdrop one of the most controversial, moral, and burning social/cultural issues of our time, abortion.
As Father O’Conner, an aging priest at Saint Aloysius Parish, contemplates his legacy, Anegla Sanchez, a troubled teen, sits in an abortion clinic awaiting her procedure.
