PASSION – A WOULD YOU BELIEVE? SPECIAL
In 2014, the residents of Nicker and Pallasgreen, a small community in rural Co. Limerick, staged Ireland’s first 24-hour Passion play. A drama without script, performed by amateurs, it demanded that its cast dig deep not only into their understanding of the 2000 year old Easter story, but deep into themselves. In doing so, they discovered passion in the fullest sense, producing a profoundly moving, even life-changing work of dramatic art that transcended its participants’ ideas of religion and left many who saw it stunned. This remarkable Would You Believe? documentary captures all that passion.
