C<br />
ounty Cork, Ireland 1983. ‘Nothin’ ever<br />
happens around here’ complains Paco,<br />
a nine year old boy raised by his wellmeaning<br />
single mother. All that changes when<br />
late one evening he witnesses a small plane<br />
crash, encountering a dashing if somewhat<br />
dodgy Columbian aviator who speaks no<br />
English. The endearing villagers unite to help<br />
the pilot fix his plane and build a runway for<br />
his flight home, and in the process, Paco's<br />
life is changed forever.<br />
