Now deeply embedded in the life around the lake, the drama of a year in their lives and those of the memorable characters that move about them unfolds through the rituals of work, play and the passing seasons as this enclosed world becomes an everywhere. An adaptation of the final novel from John McGahern, one of Ireland’s greatest novelists.
