En 1936, Cornualles vive al margen de los grandes acontecimientos históricos que se están desarrollando en Europa. De la información que les llega a través de la radio, granjeros y pescadores sólo muestran interés por la predicción atmosférica y el estado de la mar. Por otra parte, los forasteros y los desocupados no son especialmente bienvenidos en esta cerrada comunidad. El hallazgo de un náufrago en la playa próxima a su casa, perturbará no sólo la apacible vida de las hermanas Janet y Ursula Widdington, sino también la del pueblo. Antes de ser arrojado al mar desde la borda de un barco que se dirigía a América, la intencion de Andrea Marowski, un joven violinista de Cracovia, era huir de una Europa prebélica y sobre todo del antisemitismo reinante para empezar una nueva vida en América. Tanto él como las hermanas Widdington consideran un milagro que haya podido sobrevivir. (FILMAFFINITY)
