Sundance2022 Review: Sinead O'Connor Documentary 'Nothing Compares' Proves Prodigious
However, premiering in the World Cinema Documentary Competition section of the virtual 2022 fete, thedirected offering is a full-throated battle reclamation of one of most compelling and prophetic artists of the past few decades.
Tracking larger cultural and political shifts on screen, Ferguson takes us down a hall of mirrors through the sickening abuse O’Connor suffered as a child and the despicable abuse she was subjected to as a female artist daring to speak her mind, and her truth. Subsequently, the fast-paced biopic of sorts also names names and focuses on the abuse that institutions such as the Catholic Church battered on the most vulnerable with near impunity for decades.
Each outrage finds its reflection in the others to greater and lesser degrees, but the horrors themselves are not muted at all.
