After a decade away in London, twenty-nine-year-old Rona returns home to the Orkney Islands. Sober but lonely, she tries to suppress her memory of the events which set her on this journey of recovery. Slowly, the beauty and lore of the land enters her inner world and - one day at a time - Rona finds hope and strength among the heavy gales and the bracingly cold sea in a searingly honest drama about addiction, survival, and the power of nature to restore life.
