The documentary film “Testimony” chronicles the fight for justice by the survivors of the Irish Magdalene Laundries and Mother and Baby Homes. Raymond Hill provided the campaign with pro bono legal advice (see news here), which resulted in the Irish Taoiseach (Prime Minister) issuing a formal State apology in 2013 in respect of its involvement in the Magdalene Laundries (see news here) and a further apology in 2021 in respect of the Mother and Baby Homes.

Raymond and his wife, Jo, attended the premiere at the Dublin International Film Festival on 28th February, where the film was awarded the 2025 Irish Council for Civil Liberties Human Rights Film Award.
