Loosely inspired by a true story, a mother from New Jersey roams the hills of Lockerbie, Scotland, looking for her son's remains seven years after he was lost in the crash of Pan Am 103. She meets the women of Lockerbie, who are fighting the US government to obtain the clothing of the victims found in the plane's wreckage. They want to wash the clothes of the dead and return them to the victims' families. Written in the structure of a Greek tragedy, this is a poetic drama about the triumph of love over hate.
