It is basically about an orphaned boy in Ireland who is taken in by a woman and her husband. The boy and the woman form a strong bond and she teaches him a new way to look at things, but the husband seems indifferent to the boy. There is tragedy, and I spent much of the movie in tears but in spite of that it really is a wonderful story.

I give it 4 out of 5 stars.
