One question keeps cropping up when you talk to the women who were
incarcerated by their families and their priests in Ireland's notorious
Magdalene laundries: "What God did we offend?"
It's a question with no answer. Impressive as it is, Peter Mullan's film The Magdalene Sisters, on which the Vatican called down damnation after it won best film at the Venice film festival, can't answer it either.
