An acclaimed documentary on the late Vicky Phelan is due to air on TV next week.
In 2018 on the steps of The High Court, the Cervical Check campaigner gave a now-infamous address where she exposed one of the worst women’s health scandals in Irish history.
From director Sasha King (Akron), 'VICKY' delves into the scandal and details Vicky's personal fight to extend her life, a fight which sadly ended when she passed away on Monday (November 14).
It was voted Best Irish Documentary by the Dublin Film Critics Circle at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival and was also nominated for an Irish Council of Civil Liberties (ICCL) Human Rights Award at the festival.
A Princess Pictures production, 'VICKY' was produced by Sasha King, Bill Snodgrass, and Vicky Phelan with the support of Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland. Executive producers are Martina Niland, and Lesley McKimm for Screen Ireland.
The documentary airs on RTÉ One on Wednesday November 23 at 9.35pm.
