St. Patrick

The series explores Patrick's dramatic transformation from a rebellious teenager into a legendary peacemaker and chronicles his story as a slave who becomes a priest, a priest who becomes a warrior, and ultimately a warrior who becomes a saint. Born in Great Britain in the 5th century, Frey&Sommer(1)Patrick was abducted by Irish pirates at age 16 and was taken to Ireland where he was enslaved for six years before escaping to return to his family. Acting on a vision, he goes back to Ireland as a Christian missionary and would go on to become one of the symbols of Ireland, with the date of his death, March 17, observed around the world as St. Patrick's Day.
