Synopsis

Frank is a gentle unassuming embalmer from a small town in Connemara. After Frank has washed, disinfected, applied cosmetics and dressed the deceased, he always makes two cups of tea. One for him and one for the dead. The conversations Frank has with the deceased are recordings of real Irish people, telling their stories.
