The Hebrides off Scotland’s West Coast are famed the world over for their stark beauty, culture and history.The Island Race lifts the lid on events on one island where a despotic landowner tries to control the lives of everyone who lives in his domain.When his aristocratic daughter falls in love with an island lad the laird will stop at nothing to end romance across the social divide and doesn’t care who he hurts in the process.Forget the white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters - this is a community at war with the laird and each other -fuelled by jealousy and drink.This 21st century tale echoes the past centuries of repression and feudalism in a way that shows how little has changed. Dreams turn to nightmares as events unfold - and there can be only one winner.
