The Quiet Girl is Cait, we first see her she is being called by her mother lying completely still in a field surrounded by brush. Her mother is heavily pregnant and has another baby taking up her time, along with Cait’s three older siblings she deemed too much work for the family so is sent away for the summer. Her father takes her three hours south to her mother's cousin, a childless couple who will look after her during the summer holidays. Cait is uneasy at first, not used to attention and affection but slowly she begins to enjoy her time on the farm.
