Cast
- Dolly Mary McEvoy
- Mommo Siobhán McKenna

Three women dependent on and at war with one another. Mommo, the dominating and tyrannical woman, has in her unfinished storytelling the power to keep the sense of the past alive; will she finish the story and liberate both herself and her two granddaughters from the chaos and blight that hangs over them all?
