About In the Land of Saints and Sinners
In a remote Irish village, a scarred man named Finbar Murphy struggles to atone for a life defined by errors, bad choices, and regrets. After years spent on the wrong side of the law and the community's distrust, he seeks a chance at redemption, even as old habits and fresh threats pull him back toward danger. The landscape itself becomes a moral test, with wind swept lanes and weathered faces reflecting the weight of collective memory. Across tense nights and fragile alliances, Finbar confronts the price of forgiveness and the costs that come with making amends. The film uses a tight, atmospheric style to explore guilt, mercy, and the limits of redemption in a world that refuses to forget sins.
Released in 2023, the thriller is directed skillfully by Robert Lorenz with an original screenplay by Terry Loane and Mark Michael McNally. The cast includes Liam Neeson, Kerry Condon, and Ciaran Hinds in a gritty story set in rural Ireland.
