Revolves around the life of the great traditional Irish singer, Joe Heaney. The harsh Irish landscape combined with the myths, fables, and songs of his Connemara youth helped shape this fascinating character. Enigmatic and complex, Heaney's devotion to his art came at a huge personal cost. But by the time of his death in 1984, he was widely recognized as one of the most important figures in Irish traditional music, having won fans and admires from every part of the globe.
