A teenage girl on holiday has gone missing in the hills at the heart of England. The villagers are called up to join the search, fanning out across the moors as the police set up roadblocks and a crowd of news reporters descends on their usually quiet home. The search for the missing girl goes on, but so does everyday life. As the seasons unfold there are those who leave the village and those who are pulled back; those who come together or break apart.
