Pianist Lionel [Paul Mescal] and singer David [Josh O'Connor] met at the conservatory. Lionel has discovered a passion for discovering and recording folk songs, and country boy David possesses a vast knowledge. The young men join forces to search remote locations in America for people willing to record the songs they know on wax cylinders. This search leads to an intimate relationship that is disrupted by the First World War. The often moving songs irrevocably evoke memories of Harlan County, USA in this beautifully acted and filmed romantic drama, undermined by its slow pace and lack of narrative. Chris Cooper appears in the epilogue as David in 1980.
