1938. A dead whale washes ashore on a remote Welsh island. For Manod, a young girl who has spent her entire life there with her father and sister, it seems both a harbinger of doom and a symbol of what might lie beyond the familiar world.

Two English ethnographers arrive on the island, hoping to study the local culture. The longer they stay, the more Manod feels drawn to them, drawn somewhere she has never been before...

Will Manod be able to resist the urge to flee her native island and leave the community that meant everything to her?
