A tongue-in-cheek look at life and love in the Western Isles of Scotland. Jane is content in her isolation with only her animals for company. But a peculiar phone call disrupts her silence and triggers a dramatic change.George, facing dementia, reaches out for a 'befriend'. His son holds misgivings as his father enthuses about a woman on the other end of the phone. Can Jane overcome her inertia? Can George resist creating a woman in his mind who may or may not exist? In this tight-knit, deeply religious community, where the chasm between Catholics and Wee Frees runs deep, is there any chance that this improbable relationship will thrive?
