Allira is writing a story for FOLK magazine when she meets Nora, a nursing home resident with dementia and a doll cradled lovingly in her arms. Gradually Nora reveals details about her younger life as a spirited teenage girl living beneath the Great Western Tiers in Tasmania's heartland, of stiching linings into coffins, of her illicit romance with a charming Polish-German migrant, and of a family torn apart by heartbreak.
