New Vicky Phelan documentary is lucid, unsensational and gripping (The Irish Times)

Sasha King talks about making a portrait of the courageous campaigner.

“I think that’s why we’re all interested in her and interested in what she says. “We had a group of people from the 221 group come to the premiere at the Virgin Media Dublin Film Festival,” she says. “There were quite a few women there who were incredibly humble and kind about the film. “I had seen her on the news — the day that she came out of the High Court,” she says. This is a snapshot of history — of what went down that people can refer to.” I do think that what Vicky has done is part of a sea change. Phelan was in the Dáil to hear the statement and to represent fellow campaigners such as Emma Mhic Mhathúna, who had since died. “I think it’s pretty common knowledge that we don’t have a great history in this country of looking after women’s health,” King agrees. She later discovered that many other women had received false negatives after the health service had outsourced the testing to a US company. I approached her very quickly after that and we met in Dublin. She’s the one that this happened to — this dreadful, dreadful thing. A new documentary from Sasha King confirms much of what we believed, while revealing further depths to her courage and resilience.
