Robert Kennedy was one of the first American Catholic priests to be installed as a Zen teacher in the US, causing outrage in the US Zen community from people objecting to the installation of a cleric from another faith. Dónal Ó Céilleachair (The Camino Voyage) traces the transmission of Zen meditation through the life’s work of now 90-year-old Irish-American Jesuit Zen Master Robert Kennedy – and his successors and students – and shows how Kennedy’s work has brought him into dialogue with some of the most iconic figures of 20th Century Japanese and American Zen. The film provides inspiration in its exploration of interfaith dialogue on the common ground of human experience. World premiere: Galway Film Fleadh 2024
