Adapted from a multi-award-winning novel by Katherine Paterson (The Bridge To Terabithia), The Great Gilly Hopkins is the hilarious and big-hearted story about a headstrong, 12-year-old girl in the foster system who wants to find a place to call home.

Following the screening, Irish Arts Center’s own Adam Lamberg (Gordo from “Lizzie McGuire”) will moderate a talk-back with the film’s young actors, Clare Foley (Agnes) and Zachary Hernandez (W.E.).
