Love and Summer

Rathmoye, Ireland, in the middle of the last century. On the day of Eileen Connulty’s funeral, a stranger comes to town. Florian Kilderry takes unwanted and unasked for photographs, upsetting the town’s precious status quo. But Ellie, a young convent girl married to a farmer, cannot help but be drawn to the young man. Over the course of a long, warm summer Ellie and Florian form an illicit attachment that the town cannot ignore.
