Set in the fictional Irish seaside resort town of Castlebay during the 1950s and 60s, Echoes follows the lives of Clare O'Brien and David Power. Clare is the ambitious daughter of a struggling shopkeeper who wins a hard-won scholarship to university in Dublin, while David is the privileged son of the local doctor. Despite the rigid social codes of their hometown, their paths converge in Dublin where they fall in love and attempt to build a life together. However, they soon discover that the gossip, family expectations, and deep-seated secrets of Castlebay are not easily left behind. As they return to the town to face their futures, the 'echoes' of the past threaten to unravel their dreams in a story of class struggle, passion, and the complex ties of small-town life.
