Live-Action Filming in Spitalfields: Bringing History Beyond the Page

This live-action filming is augmented by a GenAI-driven social series, designed as a companion to Our Fallen Woman. Together, they invite you to step into the real places, events, and lived realities that sit behind the fiction, and to experience the journey far beyond the page.

Filmed on location in Spitalfields, this chapter explores the streets, industries, and social divides that shaped the lives of Irish women arriving in London between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These were not imagined settings. They were environments of survival, endurance, and quiet resilience.

From coastal Ireland to the wider Irish diaspora, this companion series brings history into focus through image, sound, and story. It is history felt, seen, and remembered, long after the final chapter ends.
