On a secluded hillside in Jamaica lies Firefly Noel Coward's peaceful retreat. Here between sundowners & sunsets brandies & cigarettes the seventy-one-year-old Coward whiles away his days
- a comforting frustrating pattern of unwanted breakfasts reluctant walks graceless dips in the pool
- in the company of his manservant Patrice. Both of them dream of a London that is long-gone or imagined: Noel's peopled with glamorous friends
- Redgrave Olivier O' Toole
- & Patrice's a picture-postcard vision of elegance & opportunity. Set over a series of summer days in the early 1970s Firefly flits through Coward's dreams & memories his successes & regrets against a sultry seductive backdrop of blue skies & glistening water. Colourful & contemplative this is a moving & poignant portrait of old age & friendship & a life well lived.
