IN AMERICA
by Jim Sheridan
synopsis
The death of a two-year-old child haunts the family as his memory touches them and the pain of it howls in the silence of their hearts.
They come to America to begin again. It is the Seventies and they arrive in New York with Do You Believe In Magic playing on the radio. The children, Christy and Aerial, are in awe. They are from Ireland and they embrace Manhattan, strange and exotic as it is.
