In
1985, the village of Ballinspittle in Ireland was the site of a mass visionary
experience. Worshippers at the local grotto saw the statue of the Virgin Mary
come to life. Soon, thousands made the pilgrimage and—for a summer—the
phenomenon gripped the country.
Almost forty years later, a handful of local devotees remain, including the statue’s dutiful caretaker Patrick Joseph Simms. Through Simms and a chorus of locals, the film documents both the mystical landscape of rural Irish Catholicism and a terrible darkness beneath its surface.

The War in Afghanistan has come to an end and its most tangible legacy for soldiers and civilians alike is its destruction.
Clement Boland is one such victim. The film attempts to convey Boland’s subjective experience of the strangeness of conflict, and the way his damaged imagination imposes a fragmented chronology onto the idyllic landscape of his native Sussex.

Divided into three parts, the first depicts the Kishorn fabrication yard, the second documents the dereliction of the Cromarty Firth, and finally the film looks to the future, considering the otherworldly beauty of the wind farming that is now dominant in the area.
