Calvary’s Father James is the flipside to The Guard’s Sergeant Gerry Boyle. A good man intent on making the world a better place, he is continually shocked and saddened by the spiteful and confrontational inhabitants of his small country town. After being threatened during confession, he must battle the dark forces closing in around him.

Celebrated Irish composer Patrick Cassidy ? renowned for his acclaimed works based on Irish mythology ? has here created a powerfully emotional and spiritual score, certain to be one of the most talked-about of the year.
