It is 1948 and nine year-old John Doyle is settling into life at his grandparents' Dublin boarding house. Shy and lonely at first, John is soon drawn out of his shell by the spirited Anthony Quinn and his sister Patsy. But John still longs for his father, who has been missing in action for years. Will he ever return to find his family?
