Sandra (Clare Dunne), determined to provide her two young daughters with a home, decides to build one from scratch in this drama from filmmaker Phyllida Lloyd (Mamma Mia!, The Iron Lady). Herself premiered at Sundance Film Festival 2020.
"Sandra, an Irish single mother of two young girls, faces a dire situation. An attack by her abusive ex-husband and a housing crisis in Dublin leave her living in fear and unable to find a new home. Temporarily living with her two daughters in a cramped hotel room and battling a system that refuses to help her, Sandra is determined to create some stability and security for the three of them. Seeing no other options, she decides to build her own house, literally and metaphorically pouring the foundation of her own future... Herself creates a complex and optimistic portrait of a woman fighting for her dignity as she rebuilds a life for herself and her daughters." (Sundance Film Festival)
