Boxed is a gripping fictional drama about an explosively charged controversy. Set in Northern Ireland, it is inspired by yet another question involving the Catholic Church. According to published reports, the IRA, when preparing to execute an informer, has called on accommodating priests - tame priests - to covertly provide last rites to the victim. Boxed is the story of what happens when they get the wrong priest. Tony-winner Tom Jordan Murphy plays an idealistic young priest who is inadvertently brought to an IRA safe house. When he refuses to cooperate, a drama of moral conflicts and escalating emotion and violence unfolds. Despite its intensity, Boxed is provoking a strong positive response from viewers of many perspectives, and is winning critical kudos on it's theatrical releases.
