Synopsis

Set in 1843, the story centers on Ivar, the sole occupant of a remote Scottish island. His quiet isolation is broken when he discovers an unconscious man, John Ferguson, a church minister sent to evict Ivar and convert the island to grazing land. Unaware of the stranger's true purpose, Ivar offers shelter. Despite having no common language, a fragile bond forms between the two men, while John's wife, Mary, waits anxiously on the mainland.
