Synopsis
Trespasses (2025) is a drama of forbidden love you can watch online on iFILM. It's mid-1970s Northern Ireland, with Catholics and Protestants locked into the Troubles. Cushla, a young Catholic schoolteacher, falls for a married Protestant barrister — a man from the wrong side of an invisible, lethal line.
Adapted from Louise Kennedy's award-winning novel, the show casts Lola Petticrew as Cushla, with Gillian Anderson among the ensemble. The affair grows in a town where neighbours are sorted by faith and one careless remark can get someone killed. He also defends IRA suspects, so every meeting between the two of them risks far more than disgrace.
What grips you isn't the noise of bombs but the quiet dread of choosing — feeling against fear, the private against a war that asked nobody's permission. One for viewers who like restrained European dramas set on the fault line of history. Stream Trespasses (2025) online on iFILM.
