Marcy Tizard je članica ekipe, ki dela za senatorja zvezne države Massachusetts. Ta se v Bostonu pripravlja na ponovne volitve in upa, da bo tudi v drugo zmagal. Senatorjev svetovalec Nick načrtuje, da bo s svojo novo genialno zamislijo poskrbel za dodatne glasove irskih priseljencev, če bo našel senatorjeve irske prednike. Tako se Marcy odpravi v irsko mestece Ballinagra, vendar ne ve, da tam pravkar poteka tradicionalni festival v parčkanju. Punca se kmalu povsem nepričakovano znajde v primežu ljubezni. Popolnoma jo očara nezaposleni novinar Sean, ki se je pravkar ločil od svoje žene.
Marcy is an assistant to Senator John McGlory, who is having problems with a re-election campaign. Desperate for Irish votes, McGlory's chief of staff Nick sends Marcy to Ireland to trace McGlory's relatives or ancestors. Marcy arrives at the village of Ballinagra when it is preparing for an annual Matchmaking Festival. A well-dressed, handsome and single young lady, she becomes the center of attention for two professional matchmakers, Dermot and Millie, as well as for bartender Sean.
