Film Information

Joe and Kate Ruttledge have returned from London to live and work among the small, close-knit community near to where Joe grew up. Now deeply embedded in life around the lake, the drama of a year in their lives and those of the memorable characters around them unfolds through the rituals of work, play and the passing seasons as this enclosed world becomes an everywhere.

Reviews

“With a sound design steeped in birdsong, and a spare piano score by Irene and Linda Buckley, here’s a film that unwraps its mysteries slowly, revealing under its quiet surface the human condition writ delicate but deep.”

Jonathan Romney
Financial Times

“The story of a couple finding their best life in the rural Ireland of the 1980s is beautifully realised and quietly beguiling.”

Allan Hunter
Screen Daily
