    The east end of Belfast in 1932.

  • Achoimre

    The Downies are a working class family in Belfast during the Depression. Willie Downie is a trades union activist, and his wife a labour candidate: they scandalise the neighbours by soliciting the votes of Catholics as well as Protestants. Willie's brother Bob is a railwayman whose bookish son, Joe, seeks to better himself by education. Bob's wife Jane finds her solace through drink, and this costs her her life.
