Overview
A woman travels from her Massachusetts home to her native Irish village to care for her estranged and sick father. Back in her childhood home, she comes face-to-face with previously unspoken losses.A wealthy couple travels to Cape Cod to spend their 52nd summer on the wife's ancestral estate. On their private beach above Nantucket Sound, the husband must confront the realities of their long marriage and its social-class tensions. A widow agrees to sell her west-of-Ireland farm to move to an in-law apartment attached to her daughter--and the daughter's American family's—Dublin house. In her new urban home, Grandma must confront the family's abusive past and her adult daughter's refusal to forgive or forget. An Irish immigrant takes her American-born teen to a raucous Boston house party. At that party, the teenager discovers that her mother had lied about her child's birth father—a lie that will permanently divide the mother and daughter. As these 11 stories zig zag back and forth between coastal Massachusetts and rural Ireland, "Trespassers" brims with each character's attempt to reconcile past and present, place and displacement and loss and hope.
