Brooklyn (book edition) - DVD

When a young girl moves from a complete backcountry to one of the largest cities in the world, she is in for a pretty strong shock. And that is exactly what happened to Eilis (Saoirse Ronan) in the 1950s, who is persuaded to such an adventure by her older sister, who wants a slightly better future for her than the next living in Ireland. Eilis travels across the ocean from the small Irish town of Enniscorthy to Brooklyn, New York.

She sets out on a journey to the unknown, to an environment that initially has nothing to do with her and to a life that she did not choose herself. He finds himself in a foreign world, feels like in exile, and succumbs to longing for his life in his native Enniscorthy, but after meeting a handsome Italian worker, the longing for home slowly disappears.

Eilis comes to life in bustling New York. But then comes the event, for which she has to return to her native Ireland, where she is drawn back to her previous life, and even here she meets a new love. He gets between the two voices of his own heart and has to decide between the world he comes from and the world where he can fulfill his dream
