Latest John Sayles effort is an initially slow but ultimately rewarding Irish fable about a young girl who believes her presumedly drowned brother has been rescued and raised by the local seals around the island of Roan Inish. Beautifully filmed and acted, this one's a good bet for the entire family. (R. Pitman)
