Plot summary
In 1932 Jimmy Gralton comes back to his home in County Leitrim after ten years in the United States. His widowed mother Alice is there, and he helps her run the family farm. A new government has taken power, a decade after the Irish Civil War ended. Remembering the jazz he heard in America, Jimmy reopens a community hall in Effrinagh where young people can dance, study or talk. The hall becomes popular, and that popularity brings opposition, chiefly from Father Sheridan, who calls the dancing and the music lewd and licentious.
