The unexpected death of her husband sends a woman and her seven children, ages 2-14, into emotional turmoil and financial crisis in 1967 Dublin.
She is forced to borrow money from a ruthless loan shark to make ends meet.
She faces her dismal existence by selling fruits and vegetables at an open air market where she spends time with a best friend who gives her encouragement.
Wishing to escape her existence, if only for a short time, she dreams of finding enough money to attend an upcoming Tom Jones concert.
She realizes her dream by accepting her first date with a French baker.
Her kids pool their money so she can buy a new dress.
Of course, eventually the family has to face the loan shark, but this is a movie where obstacles are maybe too easily overcome.
