Moran’s three adult daughters return home in an effort to revive their aging father.

Michael Moran’s life was forever transformed by his days of glory in the War of Independence. Now, a farmer in the Irish countryside, Moran is still fighting - with his family, his friends, even himself - in a poignant struggle to come to terms with the past.

However, as he grows older, his wife and daughters must confront how their own lives have been irrevocably shaped by this complicated and contradictory man.

An intimate story of a family living on the Irish border, under the thumb of a former soldier turned tyrant in his own home.
