Inhaltsangabe

Iron is an intense psychological drama in which a mother and daughter try to break through the barriers of time, memory and punishment which separate them.
But between them lies the fact of murder. A murder Josie cannot remember and Fay has always tried to forget. Uncovering the memories they share is more dangerous than either of them can imagine.
