Beschreibung
When Bert Cousins shows up at Franny Keating's christening party uninvited and later kisses Franny's mother, he sets in motion the joining of two families. Commonwealth weaves across 50 years to tell how that chance encounter changed the lives of the six children and four parents involved. A meditation on inspiration, interpretation and the ownership of stories, as well as the far-reaching bonds of love and responsibility. Told with equal measures of humour and heartbreak.
