The rural Irish village of Wake Wood preserves a tradition enabling the dead to be brought back for three days, one year after their death, for a final farewell. But there are rules which grieving newcomers Patrick (Aidan Gillen) and Louise Daly (Eva Birthistle) break. These are the parents of a girl who was killed by a savage dog, who are granted the opportunity to spend three days with their deceased daughter. This is the first Hammer Productions feature film after a hiatus of three decades.
