Having lived illegally in Canada for the past eight years, Danny Gallagher returns to his family home in rural Donegal. He spends his days isolated, seeking to make sense of the bruises left by his past by recording an audio tape for a person that he no longer knows. Only when the tape is finished, and the house is cleared, can he finally move on.
