Wolfwalkers and The Secret of Kells are the bookend films of Tomm Moore's "Irish Folklore Trilogy." They share many similarities, but their vastly different portrayals of the legacy of Christianity in Ireland stir up many interesting questions. This video is a thematic analysis of both films that attempts to shine light this distinction. It also presents some lessons and questions worth considering for anyone interested in Christian history.
