The story

Mary Holmes, once a famous opera star known as Maria di Nardi, now lives in a run-down shanty and suffers from alcoholism. Known for her eccentric behavior, Mary breeds geese, and is thus known in her neighborhood as "the Goose Woman". She blames her grown son Geoffrey for the deterioration of her voice and does everything she can to destroy his life.
