A darkly beautiful tale drawing on the folklore of pre-Famine Ireland and the writings of Blake and Yeats, this is a scary, frank and extraordinary film about a young woman who’s considered 'odd’, who becomes fascinated by the shaman Scarf Michael, a man the villagers fear. He shows her how to use her power and the villager's fear to her advantage playing on their superstitious, barely Christian beliefs.
