Celebrated actor and comedian Jay Baruchel has an obsession with a sport and a team far from home, in another continent: he is a massive fan of Glasgow s Celtic Football Club. And like millions of fans around the world, Jay defies crazy distances and time differences to get his fix of European football. How did Jay s own obsession begin and what is it about football that inspires such fanaticism in every far-flung corner of our globe? Celtic Soul follows Jay on an epic road trip with his new friend, well-known Irish soccer journalist Eoin O Callaghan, to find out. This is a story that spans 200 years of colorful history and that will take the duo eastward from Montreal to Westport, Ireland where Jay s ancestors set sail for Canada, like so many others and finally Glasgow, where Jay will fulfill a lifelong dream: to watch a match at Celtic Park, one of the wildest and most hallowed grounds in world football.
