Set in the late 1960s in Wexford, Nora Webster is a woman
struggling to come to terms with the loss of her husband Maurice. Living in a
small community where well-meaning neighbours continually interrupt her to
express their grief at her loss and provide unwanted 'advice' of what she must
do now, Nora just wants to continue on in solitude. Raising four children alone
and faced with making decisions independently, leads Nora to discover hidden
strengths. Through unexpected gifts of new friendships and music, Nora may find
a way to live a happy life again.
