How to face yourself is the most important

A priest who was over half a hundred years old in an Irish seaside town suddenly received death threats. The killer gave him a week to deal with the funeral. A story about crime, morality, forgiveness and redemption unfolded. In just seven days, each entangled with problems. Congregation. The daughter who just returned from the suicide attempt, the dying writer, the serial teenage murderer in the prison, the self-giving laundress and her black lover, the decadent banker whose wife was scattered, the retired sheriff, the departed pastor partner, Male prostitutes serving men, ignorant teenagers who can't find directions, lonely and indulgent doctors, bartenders full of dissatisfaction, female scientists who have just lost their husbands. The priest hopes to help everyone solve problems in his own week. He keeps visiting, preaching, and mediating. A week later, the priest came to the beach to meet the killer as scheduled, and was eventually killed by the killer. Everyone’s problems remain the same, and life remains the same...

Quiet plot, proper performance, broad background music, everyone is walking on the road of sin and forgiveness, everyone is constantly facing themselves and the world.

    What I want to say is not clear, the director's ability is still not enough.

    The priest was killed and he seemed to have done a lot in the week before he died

Calvary quotes

  • Father Leary: Jesus Christ! What happened to you?

    Father James Lavelle: Brendan Lynch.

    Father Leary: Brendan Lynch? He is a Buddhist!

    Father James Lavelle: So what if he is a fucking Buddhist? You think Buddhists don't beat people up? You think Buddhists don't fuck their kids like everyone else?

    Father Leary: You are obviously very upset.

    Father James Lavelle: Tibetians spit on blind people in the street! They are killing albinos in Africa! You are so fucking naive!

    Father Leary: Please do not curse at me, Father. I think it would be best to countinue this conversation in the morning, when you are sober.

    Father James Lavelle: Why you are a fucking priest at all? You should be a fucking accountant or a fucking insurance man!

  • Father James Lavelle: The limits of His mercy have not been set.
