Four Letters of Love

Directed by Polly Steele
Starring Pierce Brosnan, Helena Bonham Carter, Gabriel Byrne, Donal Finn, Ann Skelly

Nicholas and Isabel are made for each other, but fate does not always choose the easiest path to true love. As destiny pulls them together, so do family, passion, and faith drive them apart.

Nicholas’ father, William, comes home one day to shatter his family’s quiet, modest life. He tells them that after a moment of divine revelation, he has decided to dedicate his life to painting. He quits his job and sets off for the Western coast, leaving his shell shocked wife and son to fend for themselves.

Meanwhile Isabel and her family live a charmed existence on a remote Western island, their house full of music and poetry. When tragedy strikes and her brother suffers a terrible accident, the music stops, and Isabel’s parents decide in their grief to send Isabel to a convent school on the mainland.

The young lovers embark on their own individual journeys of heartache and misplaced love, before fate contrives to pull the threads of their lives together. Based on Niall Williams’ best-selling novel.
