Pilgrimage SP Films, Ireland A group of monks escort a holy relic across the perilous war-torn landscape of 13th century Ireland - but at what cost to their faith and sanity? Synopsis Ireland, 1209. An island on the edge of the world. A small group of monks begin a reluctant pilgrimage across an island torn between centuries of tribal warfare and the growing power of Norman invaders. Escorting their monastery’s holiest relic – a rock used in the martyrdom of St. Mathias, the thirteenth apostle – to Rome, the monks’ progress is seen through the eyes of a pious young novice and a mute lay-brother with a violent past. As the true material, political and religious significance of the bejeweled relic becomes dangerously apparent, their path to the east coast becomes increasingly fraught with danger. The monks belatedly realise that in this wild land of ancient superstitions, the faith that binds them together may ultimately lead to their destruction. Statement on the world of Pilgrimage Everything about Pilgrimage is small and intimate, a story told on the outskirts, and this is what allows us to discover and understand the workings of 13th century Ireland – a truly unusual and shifting world, and this background fabric enriches the eerie and unsettling journey of the monks. Gaelic chiefs, disgruntled brigands, Norman Lords and the Roman church all exist uncomfortably side-by-side –with an imbroglio of alliances shifting dangerously under the surface as they all vie for power. The undiscovered wonder of this time is its shifting sands of political allegiance – an enthralling, dark and interesting world, with no stymieing preconceptions, a time and place that can drench any audience with its universal mystery. The strangeness of the journey, the ominous echoes of the relic, and the overpowering reek of faith and church, allow for a highly successful layering of tone within the actual structure and story. Director’s profile Brendan Muldowney is a graduate of IADT (The National Film School). He has just completed his second feature film Love Eternal, following his IFTA nominated debut Savage.
