Drame
Irlande, 1952. Philomena Lee, encore adolescente, tombe enceinte. Rejetée par sa famille, elle est envoyée au couvent de Roscrea. En compensation des soins prodigués par les religieuses avant et pendant la naissance, elle travaille à la blanchisserie, et n’est autorisée à voir son fils, Anthony, qu’une heure par jour. À l’âge de trois ans, il lui est arraché pour être adopté par des américains. Pendant des années, Philomena essaiera de le retrouver. Quand, cinquante ans plus tard, elle rencontre Martin Sixmith, journaliste désabusé, elle lui raconte son histoire, et ce dernier la persuade de l’accompagner aux États-Unis à la recherche d’Anthony.
