Review of the previously screened film ("Calvary", 4.5 stars)
Steven says: It is a well-constructed story that simultaneously takes on the Catholic Church in Ireland and offers a retelling of the Crucifixion for modern times. It is a layered, gorgeous and thought-provoking film that offers suspense and opportunities for personal reflection. Highly recommended.
