Irish language film; the father of a small family returns to his parents house on the Galway coast. The realisation that his mother was one of the 'seal people' leads him into a fatal attempt to escape his everyday life. A strong, dramatic tale, with Gleeson providing the necessary solid centre to the otherwise fantastic story. (The legend which provided the basis for this film was also used in John Sayles' 'Secret of Roan Inish').
