Having met Anne at the time of the 1969 Isle of Wight music festival and fallen madly in love, Paul decides to run off with Anne to her mainland commune, leaving behind his conservative life on the island. On hearing the news, his father, Albert, suffers a heart attack which forces Paul to reconsider his options. In the present day, a chance encounter with Anne's daughter leads the recently widowed Paul back into the past and the flames of romance slowly grow, not just for Paul and Anne, but for their children as well. The parallels between Paul's past relationship with his father and his current relationship with his own son become apparent in this poignant and humorous look at how the events of 1969 affect three generations of the same family. A must for all who remember the heady days of the hippy! |
