Synopsis

The action is set in County Cork, in Southern Ireland in 1920. The film is a portrait of the end of an era, and the demise of a class and a way of life that have survived for centuries. It is also a psychological drama depicting the opposing emotions of love and the longing for freedom; of the lure of complacency and the hunger for change; of 'old ways' against the terrifying prospect of independence, both political and spiritual; above all, it is a portrait of a young woman's coming of age in a brutalised time and place.

Santo is a respected religious clockmaker and moneylender in his village. He exploits families in debt by using charm and kindness.

His latest victim is Cira, an 11-year-old blackberry picker whose mother has pawned their home and land. After Santo's death, Maria Luisa, one of his victims, with the help of Fernando, his childhood friend and lawyer, fights for justice.
