The Road Dance
Kirsty MacLeod dreams of a better life away from her small village in the Outer Hebrides. On the night of a road dance in the honour of local WWI conscripts, a tragedy befalls her.
Kirsty MacLeod dreams of a better life away from the small village on an island in the Outer Hebrides. Suppressing these aspirations, she sees her lover, Murdo, who has been conscripted for service in the First World War and is soon to set off and fight alongside the other young men from the village. A road dance is held in their honour the evening before they depart, and it’s on this fateful evening that Kirsty’s life takes a tragic turn.
