Plot

In the remote corners of Ireland's Dingle Peninsula, set against the dramatic backdrop of World War I, the tale of Rosy Ryan Shaughnessy (Sarah Miles) unfurls. An innocent horseback ride on the windswept beach with a charming English officer sparks an irresistible force between them. This magnetic pull began on an ordinary day, when he was the solitary patron in her father's pub where Rosy, newly wed to the village schoolmaster, was serving behind the bar for the first time. As the plot thickens, a tempestuous night brings a band of Irish revolutionaries to Ryan's pub, anxiously awaiting a consignment of weapons. But the winds of betrayal are stirring. Is it Rosy who divulges their secret to the British? Will Shaughnessy heed the counsel of Father Collin? Or is the true linchpin of this tale the village simpleton, struck mute by circumstances unknown? Ryan's Daughter weaves a tale of intrigue and passion where love, loyalty, and silence dance on the precipice of war.
