When Aífe's sister dies, she is forced to marry her widower, the chieftain Lir. She promised to protect her sister's children, but Lir's mistreatment drives Aife to use her magic aganist them. This savage retelling of a classic Irish fairy tale gives voice to Aífe, the scorned woman who took terrible vengeance on the children of Lir.
