The children of Rosaleen Madigan leave the west of Ireland for lives in Dublin, New York and various third-world towns. In her early old age, Rosaleen announces that shes selling the family home and dividing the proceeds, and her adult children return for one last Christmas.

Hanna, Dan, Constance and Emmet return to the west coast of Ireland for a final family Christmas in the home their mother is about to sell. As the feast turns to near painful comedy, a last, desperate act from Rosaleen - a woman who doesn't quite know how to love her children - forces them to confront the weight of family ties and the road that brought them home.
