SINS OF THE MOTHER - THE MOVIE

We're thrilled to announce that the film rights to Sins of the Mother, written with Irene, Matt and Jennifer Kelly, were sold to Unstoppable Urges Productions this month.

Canadian-based producer Kelli Keiley optioned the film rights to the book, published by Macmillan in August 2015, after she was moved by the Kelly family's heartbreaking story of a family coming to terms with mum Irene's abusive past in Ireland.

Ghostwriter Katy Weitz says: 'We're delighted Kelli and her team are making the movie. She is clearly very passionate about the subject and I'm convinced she will make a compassionate, engaging and compelling drama from this true story.'
