第96回アカデミー賞®主演男優賞に輝いた『オッペンハイマー』（23）の後、 キリアン・マーフィーが次なる挑戦として選んだ意欲作。『コット、はじまりの夏』（22）の原作者として知られ、現代アイルランドを代表する作家クレア・キーガンの世界的ベストセラー小説「ほんのささやかなこと」が原作。マーフィーがこの小説にほれ込み、映画化を希望。『オッペンハイマー』撮影中にマット・デイモンに企画を持ち掛け、ベン・アフレックも加わり実現した。マーフィーは本作で初めてプロデューサーとしても名を連ね、キャスティングにも参加。 本作は、アイルランドに実在した“マグダレン洗濯所”の人権問題を背景に描かれる人間ドラマ。社会が長く黙認してきた現実を前に、「知ってしまった個人はどう振る舞うのか」を静かに問いかける。言葉を抑え、沈黙と内面の葛藤を徹底的に演じ切るマーフィーの姿が、深い余韻を残す一作。 2024年の第74回ベルリン国際映画祭において、シスター・メアリーを演じたエミリー・ワトソンが見事に銀熊賞（最優秀助演賞）を受賞した。

Clash of the Choirs is a reality talent contest miniseries that debuted on NBC in the United States on December 17, 2007. There were four episodes scheduled in the “quick competition”. Maria Menounos is the host of the program, which was performed live from Stage One at Steiner Studios in Brooklyn, New York. The format was developed by Friday TV from an idea from the Swedish singer and choir leader Caroline af Ugglas. The format was a multi-city “bragging rights” competition between 20-person choirs assembled in the hometowns of the recording artists that support them. In the 2007 competition, the choirs competed for a cash prize of $250,000, backed in part by Sony Pictures in support of its upcoming movie release, First Sunday. The film, about petty criminals using a choir in a neighborhood church as part of their scheme, was released 11 January 2008, in the United States and Canada and throughout Europe in April 2008. The prize was in the form of a contribution to a charity active in the artist's hometown. The choir led by former 98° singer Nick Lachey won the 2007 competition, which was decided by public vote after four nights of live performances. Patti LaBelle's choir finished second, followed by Blake Shelton's, Michael Bolton's, and Kelly Rowland's. The remaining teams received $50,000 each of donations, courtesy of General Electric, parent company of network owner NBC Universal.
