The Newlyn School of Musicians Thrived at the beginning of the 20th Century and the film focuses on the bohemian and Crazy Lamorna Group, That Comprised Laura and Alfred Munnings and Harold Knight. The anti-Modernist Munnings, currently regarded as one of the most artists of Britain, is at the middle of the love triangle, the land agent responsible for the Lamorna Valley estate, involving Gilbert Evans and artist Florence Carter-Wood. True - and moving - that the story is performed in this Great War's shadow.
