Show notes

Ailbhe Griffith was 21 years old when she was subjected to a violent sexual assault by a man on her way home from work in 2005. Her attacker was caught and sent to prison, but nine years later Ailbhe decided to meet the man who had left her seriously injured and psychologically scarred. That event is now the subject of a film in which Ailbhe plays herself. She talks to Róisín Ingle about The Meeting (directed by Alan Gilsenan), the sexual assault she was subjected to and why she felt coming face to face with her attacker was what she needed to help her to heal. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
