On the North West Coast of Ireland is a small fishing village called Burtonport. On the surface, it is similar to many of Ireland's more rural villages however scratch the surface and you will hear stories of the cults that called it home for 20 years.

Between 1974 and 1992, two cults chose Burtonport as their home, and brought controversy, news reporters and unrest to the otherwise sleepy village.

Today we will look at The Atlantis Commune, otherwise known as "The Screamers"; a group that came from the UK to Donegal to practice primal scream therapy, led by Jenny James.
