An adaptation of celebrated Irish writer John McGahern’s last novel of the same name, this film is a poetic celebration of the everyday. Joe (Barry Ward) and Kate Ruttledge (Anna Bederke) move from London to live and work in the countryside of Joe’s childhood. Capturing a year in the life of a rural, lakeside community in Ireland in the 1970s through the rhythms of changing seasons, director Collins presents a film replete with extraordinary beauty and truth. One that has been hailed by critics as a 'poignant meditation on life and friendship.
