Following the huge success of An Cailín Ciúin, this wonderfully warm tale of a recently widowed woman continues the wave of Irish language filmmaking. As she tries to come to terms with the death of her husband, Róise rarely ventures out until a dog finds its way to her door. The dog has a favourite chair, and loves steak and sport, convincing her that it is in fact her late husband. Charming, evocative and with brilliant performances, including that of the dog.
