Calvary (2014)

Plot: In a Sunday morning in a small town in Ireland a parishioner confesses to Father James the sexual abuse he was submitted by a priest when he was a child. He tells that he will kill James who is a good priest at the beach on the next Sunday instead of a bad priest to disturb the Church. Along the week Father James has to deal with his troubled and estranged daughter Fiona Lavelle that tried to commit suicide; with the disturbed butcher Jack Brennan that hit his unfaithful wife Veronica; with her aggressive lover Simon; with an old writer that needs attention; with the cynical and atheist Dr. Frank Harte; with the problematic and spiritually empty millionaire Michael Fitzgerald that wants to donate money to the church. Meanwhile his church is burnt to the ground and Father James gets a gun from the local chief of police; then he decides to travel to Dublin. What will be Father James's final decision?

Outline: After he is threatened during a confession a good-natured priest must battle the dark forces closing in around him.
