Ireland West Camino: A Pilgrimage Reborn

This feature length film (1.5-hour) documentary follows the pilgrims’ spiritual journey across the west of Ireland, on what was historically known in the early Christian era as the Tóchar Phádraig, as they are embraced by the rich natural and cultural heritage of counties Roscommon, Sligo, and Mayo. From iconic cinematography of the landscape and Trad sessions to local mythology and listening to the pulse of ancient sacred sites along the way, the pilgrims’ deeper calling to the ancient path is revealed in a powerful story of turning darkness into light.
A collaborative Irish and American effort to revitalise the Bronze Age pilgrimage route followed by St Patrick in the 5th century from Rathcroghan to Croagh Patrick, came to fruition in the summer of 2024 when 20 pilgrims walked the entire +170-km route over eight days – arriving at Croagh Patrick on Garland Sunday with thousands of other pilgrims from around the world.
