Plot Summary:
Based on the 2009 investigative book by
BBC correspondent Martin Sixsmith, The Lost Child of Philomena Lee,
"Philomena" focuses on the efforts of Philomena Lee (Dench), mother to
a boy conceived out of wedlock - something her Irish-Catholic community
didn't have the highest opinion of - and given away for adoption in the
United States. In following church doctrine, she was forced to sign a
contract that wouldn't allow for any sort of inquiry into the son's
whereabouts. After starting a family years later in England and, for
the most part, moving on with her life, Lee meets Sixsmith (Coogan), a
BBC reporter with whom she decides to discover her long-lost son.
