Really didn't understand the storyline

Rating: 1/10 (13 October 2015)

OK so I know that the story goes with a woman who was muted because on her wedding day, her husband was killed by lightning and is rising her daughter as a single parent.
However, It didn't make any sense to me that she had to take off her clothes for a fisherman who promises her to give her back the piano. I honestly didn't understand why the story was going all over the place when that scene happened because like why on earth did she decide to go for him and not Sam Neill's character. Also the characters really should've been played by English actors because some of the amercian actors weren't that great with their fake English accents!
I didn't find this movie that great to be honest!
