Tensions rise when miner’s son Robat becomes fascinated by Eldra, a bare-foot Gypsy girl who keeps company with a fox cub. Meanwhile, Eldra’s grandparents roll into town in their Gypsy caravan, reminding the family of their Romany ways.  So will their friendship survive or is it doomed to fall with the autumn leaves?
