Synopsis:

*********THIS DVD'S DESCRIPTION HAS NOT BEEN FINALIZED YET********
After being threatened during a confession, a good-natured priest must battle the dark forces closing in around him.

Father James is a small-town priest in Ireland whose Sunday confessionals suddenly include a threat to kill him in a week's time as a matter of principle. Deeply troubled and conflicted about how to respond, Father James tries to go on with his calling through that week. However, that proves impossible as he is confronted with a troubling variety of spiritual challenges from both his estranged daughter and his own parishioners. In those dispiriting struggles, Father James' life begins to fall apart as time runs out towards a confrontation that seems to crystallize his values and what he wants his life to be.

Drama. While hearing confession from a victim of child abuse, Father James Lavelle, a priest in a small Sligo parish, is told that he is going to be murdered in one week's time. During the week he deals with many of the troubled parishioners and has a visit from a family member, all the while wondering if the death threat will be carried out.
