When a young, irreverent priest arrives at Saint Patrick Parish in Lawrence, Mass. he discovers the unexpected — boiling ethnic tensions in a changing working-class community. Filmed over four years,Scenes from a Parish follows the wildly diverse personal stories of Father Paul O’Brien and his unruly flock — longtime Irish-American parishioners and recent immigrants from the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Vietnam, and Cambodia — as they struggle to hold on to faith in the face of desperate circumstances.
