Been hearing about this for a while, looks to be an interesting movie. There will be a limited theatrical release on August 11th in the US.

From IMDB
Ireland, 1209. An island on the edge of the world. A small group of monks begin a reluctant pilgrimage across an island torn between centuries of tribal warfare and the growing power of Norman invaders. Escorting their monastery's holiest relic to Rome, the monks' progress is seen through the eyes of a pious young novice and a mute lay-brother with a violent past. As the true material, political and religious significance of the bejeweled relic becomes dangerously apparent, their path to the east coast becomes increasingly fraught with danger. The monks belatedly realize that in this wild land of ancient superstitions, the faith that binds them together may ultimately lead to their destruction

Subwoofer boom warning :)

Finally got to see this movie, its on Amazon. 8/10

Just to say it was better than the trailer, the characters were well played, the soundtrack is great, cinematography is excellent and the story was compelling. You can read other reviews at IMDB better than I could ever write so I will leave it at that.

Without looking it up I am guessing the rock was a meteorite.
