Synopsis

The 1970s. Northern Ireland.

Pat and Mary Gormley are an ill-matched couple: Pat is a laid-back publican, a storyteller and musician, whereas Mary is determinedly, upwardly mobile, nagging at their children to succeed and moving the family away from the pub as soon as she can.

Looking back thirty years later, their daughter Kathleen tries to piece together the family story so that she can understand what drove them apart; in doing so, she uncovers an important family secret.
