Emily is an American widow occupying a posh apartment she can no longer afford, and Donald is an Irish loner who lives off the land in a makeshift cabin and wants nothing more than to be left in peace. When his home is threatened by real estate developers, Emily believes she has found her new cause -- but gets more than she bargained for when romance blossoms. Based on the life of Harry Hallowes - who successfully claimed ownership of a half-acre plot of Hampstead Heath.
