Ireland, 1937. Young beautiful and trusting, Elizabeth Sullivan's (Elisabeth Dermot-Walsh) world suddenly turns tragic. Pregnant after a brief affair, her family quickly marries her off to an elderly farmer and banishes her to a remote County Kerry peninsula. Here Elizabeth resigns herself to a loveless, brutal marriage and begins to raise her family.

Denying her longing for intimacy and love, Elizabeth immerses herself in her children's lives. Captivated by her radiance, a handsome young labourer (Colin Farrell), reawakens her passions. Their relationship rocks the foundation of Elizabeth's world. What follows is a poignant story of lave lost and found, of hatred and reconciliation, tears and laughter, truth and understanding and in the end, the ultimate peace that love offers to those who never lose faith.
