Academy Award winner Daniel Day-Lewis (1989, Best Actor, My Left Foot) and Academy Award nominee Emily Watson (1996, Best Actress, Breaking The Waves) are star-crossed lovers torn between unquestioning loyalty to the ties of tradition and the passion they share in one of the year's most critically acclaimed films from Academy Award nominated director Jim Sheridan (1993, Best Director, In The Name Of The Father). When Danny Flynn returns to his Belfast neighborhood after 14 years in prison, all he wants is to find peace, resume his career and reclaim the love of the woman who has remained etched in his mind. As they slowly embrace the possibilities of renewed romance, they realize cultural taboos stand in the way and fighting for love could cost them their lives.
