In 1951, young Eilis Lacey lives in Enniscorthy, a small town in southeastern Ireland, with her mother and her sister Rose. Eilis wants a full-time job, but she can't find one in town, so she works weekends at a shop run by the wicked Miss Kelly, known as "Nettles" Kelly. The local dances and young men don't capture her interest, and her daily life revolves around the family home and the shop counter. The film opens with her search for an opportunity in a place that seems to offer none. Directed by John Crowley, it stars Saoirse Ronan.

I'd forgotten what this town is like. What were you planning to do, Miss Kelly? Keep me away from Jim? Stop me from going back to America? Perhaps you didn't even know. Perhaps it was enough for you to know that you could ruin me. My name is Eilis Fiorello.
I'll tell you this much: I am going to ask Father Flood to preach a sermon on the dangers of giddiness. I now see that giddiness is the eighth deadly sin. A giddy girl is every bit as evil as a slothful man, and the noise she makes is a lot worse. Now, enough.
Georgina: Try and remember that sometimes it's nice to meet people who don't know your auntie.
You're the prettiest girl in County Wexford. You should be able to choose any man you want. And we're hoping that George Sheridan from the rugby club looks your way.
Diana's right, though, Eilis. You need to think carefully about your costume. It's the most Tony will ever have seen of you. You don't want to put him off.
Diner Waiter: I hope that when I go through the pearly gates, the first sound I hear is you asking me for the bill in that lovely Irish brogue.
