This docudrama tells the story from the Irish Penal times up to the Knock Apparition. We see first hand what the Irish people went through, during the Penal times, having to say Mass in secret and also the terrible hardships of the Famine period. The worst year of that period was 1847, known as "Black '47". One million people died and a million more emigrated from Ireland causing the island's population to fall by between 20% and 25%.
