In medieval Ireland, young Brendan lives with his uncle, who is an abbot in a remote monastery. A new monk arrives, with Vikings hot on his tail. He brings with him the magical Book of Kells, which is a source of intrigue and wonder for Brendan, who begins a search to unveil the sacred manuscript’s secrets. Cartoon Saloon’s Oscar-nominated first feature is a hugely accomplished, hand-drawn animated drama.
