Maire O'Donnell (Connie Nielsen) has a smile that can light up the darkest room. Joyful, warm and caring, she adopts a young orphan named Tomas and whisks him away to a new home on remote Corrie Island, off the coast of Ireland. Maire shares with Tomas the joys of her island home and introduces him to the whimsical local folklore, but her stern and reluctant husband Alec (Aidan Quinn) silently disapproves of Tomas' timidity and halting speech, making Tomas unsure of his new family. When tragedy strikes, the boy must face his greatest challenge yet. Risking all, Tomas embarks on a perilous journey where he will need to call on his ability to see joy and color even when in the darkest places. A SHINE OF RAINBOWS is a poignant and moving story about the transformational power of love, about finding acceptance, discovering ourselves, and realizing that rainbows are all around us -- and within us.
