14-year-old Margaret Kelly enters service in the O’Connell house, owners of the cider factory and landlords of the Cottages. Falling under the spell of their son Sebastian, she is forced to leave her post when she falls pregnant by him.
Finding sanctuary at a harsh Catholic Mothers and baby home, Margaret meets the kindly Sister Anna who becomes an important figure in baby Sean’s life.
Sister Anna promises she will take care of Sean until he is adopted but when Catholic couples come from America to adopt babies, no one takes Sean.
Sister Anna has no choice, but to put him into a workhouse. Ranging through Ireland, Wales, America and Australia, Sister Anna and Sean explore and celebrate the light and dark sides of human existence and endurance.
