A love story about a woman torn between her past and her future, and caught in the middle of a choice that could ruin and transform her life.
After a brief but life-changing holiday affair ends her eighteen-year marriage, Liselle Dupre moves from Toronto to a remote village on the west coast of Ireland. She gradually becomes acquainted with some of the locals, whose wholehearted charm and colourful stories revive her spirits and inspire her to make a documentary about their interwoven tales of romance.
While she explores her fascinating new surroundings, Liselle comes to confront her own tumultuous past and her feelings for Charlie, the Welsh painter who rekindled her passions in Mexico, realizing that to tell the stories of others, she must first reveal her own.
Subtly and beautifully written, The Ice Chorus is a vivid and compassionate investigation of love and memory.
'A subtle, lovely evocation of the transforming power of love.'
