Maria is an Englishwoman who has fallen in love with her husband Iain's Highland heritage - but there's a shock in store for them when they take a trip home to his mother's island croft. It is Hogmanay, and Iain has just received news of his mother's death. He and Maria set off from Edinburgh to attend the funeral. They drive north in blizzard conditions. Eventually they reach Iain's mother's house, where brother James, sister-in-law Ishbel, and the church elders are gathered. In the aftermath of this family crisis Maria's love affair with the island way of life will be severely tested. Written by Gerda Stevenson. Starring Juliet Stevenson as Maria and Iain MacRae as Iain, with David Walker, Carina MacLeod and Angus Peter Campbell. Producer/director: Bruce Young.
