Synopsis

Movie based on Luanne Rice's novel "Blue Moon." Cass and Billy Medieros and their three children have been happy living near Cass' family, the Keatings, in an old Eastern seaboard fishing village. Cass manages her father Jimmy's restaurant and Billy captains one of the Keating fishing boats. A rift has developed between Cass and Billy due to Billy's inability to deal with their hearing-impaired daughter Josie. Cass also suspects that her sister's wealthy new boyfriend wants to buy the restaurant to raze it and build up the wharf. Her stubborn resistance to change puts a strain on relations with friends and family. When Billy is nearly killed in an accident, the family is reminded of what is most important to them -- their love for one another.
