Angels named Finaun, Caeltia, and Art descend to earth and travel with the tramps, blending celestial wisdom with the gritty, everyday struggles of survival, storytelling, and petty theft.

Angels named Finaun, Caeltia, and Art descend to earth and travel with the tramps, blending celestial wisdom with the gritty, everyday struggles of survival, storytelling, and petty theft.

The angels, gorgeously apparelled and majestic, descend into the simple, dark world of Mac Cann and Mary, highlighting the contrast between the celestial and the earthly.
