Film Screening: Mrs Robinson

September 30, 2024 @ 5:00 PM 7:00 PM

Directed by Aoife Kelleher (One Million Dubliners) the film allows Mary Robinson, a highly articulate and astute commentator, to tell her story, in her own words, for the first time. 

A reforming constitutional lawyer and senator in her early career, Mary Robinson detonated an electoral earthquake by winning the Irish Presidential vote in 1990. Later, as a crusading UN High Commissioner, she built a lasting legacy; fearlessly challenging perpetrators of human rights abuses all over the world.

To this day, Mrs Robinson exerts power and leadership as the Chair of The Elders; the independent group of global leaders (founded by Nelson Mandela) who work for peace, justice and human rights. As an influential global voice, Mary Robinson is also spearheading Project Dandelion: a women-led climate justice campaign.
