Set in Ireland where the Catholic Church has been superseded by a repressive order with new ideas. When a group of Irish monks rebel, a Vatican official is sent to bring order once more.
In the near future, the Catholic church has joined with other western religions in an ecumenical movement that has washed out much of the original message of the religion. A group of Irish monks have begun saying the mass again in Latin and have begun to have an international following. Martin Sheen is sent from Rome to bring them to task and they must confront what is truly essential in their worship and what is not.—John Vogel <jlvogel@comcast.net>
When a group of traditional Irish priests (lamenting the decline and modernization of their religion) attempt to break away and establish their own movement, it is left to Martin Sheen (on a mission from Rome) to confront the group.
