THE SILVER BRANCH

KATRINA COSTELLO | IRELAND | 2018 | 73 MIN | G

PA Premiere
THE SILVER BRANCH is about one man’s journey through life and his search to reconnect with nature and culture as primary sources from which we learn a deeper understanding of ourselves and our surroundings. In this bittersweet evocation of the end of an era, an Irish farmer/poet, deeply entwined with ancestral traditions and the natural world, must stand up for all that is sacred to him when the government threatens his way of life.

The viewer is invited to follow in mindful meditation and to take a journey into the self, leading to a deep connection with the Earth and our ancestral wild spirit.
