A Gaelic version of Farmer Duck. The duck lives with an old lazy crofter, but it’s the duck that has to do all the work on the farm while the crofter lies in bed all day.
In 1940, in Barra in the Outer Hebrides, an 18-year-old woman, Flòraidh, is persuaded to leave her island home when she learns that her stepmother intends to marry her off to the local shopkeeper. She follows her enigmatic friend Lavinia to the city and changes her identity to Laura, like a butterfly, leaving her chrysalis behind, as they join the war effort.
