I also want to thank Tod Goldberg for accepting me into the program and for his very insightful comments on my work. The smart, thoughtful feedback from Mary Yukari Waters was also instrumental in getting my story where it needed to be. Thanks also to my many colleagues at UCR who provided very valuable comments on my work and whose work I too admire. I am so lucky to have had you as friends in this program, so much so that I copied verbatim the first half of this sentence from the sample acknowledgments page in the thesis review packet. Last, I want to thank my parents Suresh and Shaila Supekar who gave me the stories to tell and the desire to tell them by virtue of just being here, in America, as immigrants who left so much behind in India. And of course, none of my work would be possible without the love—upon which everything is built, really—from my partner Arturo Aguilar, who pushed me to follow my dream and has supported me in every way throughout this journey.

Centering on the reminiscences of Rose McNulty, a woman who has spent over fifty years in state institutions, The Secret Scripture is a deeply moving story of love lost and redeemed, against the backdrop of an emerging Irish state in which female sexuality and independence unsettles the colluding patriarchies of church and nationalist politics. Demonstrating Sheridan’s trademark skill with actors, his profound sense of story, and depth of feeling for Irish social history, The Secret Scripture marks a return to personal themes for the writer-director as well as a reunion with producer Noel Pearson, almost a quarter of a century after their breakout success with My Left Foot.
