There is an old Irish song "Will Ye Go Lassie Go" and within the lyrics is the phrase "The wild mountain thyme Grows around the bloomin' heather." That is the derivation of the title of the movie. It is set and filmed in rural Ireland and the scenery is beautiful.
It is a story about Rosemary and Anthony, we see them first as children of two different families living and working on adjacent farms. As we eventually see them as adults, they are played by Emily Blunt and Jamie Dornan. We learn that Rosemary has had a lifelong desire to be with Anthony but he has a series interpersonal issue, he has a low self-esteem and seems almost incapable of overcoming it. But Rosemary is very persistent and headstrong.
Now that the old parents of each of them are expiring they need to figure out what to do with the farms, and whether their lifelong friendship might turn into a marriage.
The movie is filled with Irish humor and the characters are all interesting. My wife and I found the movie to be better and more entertaining than its IMDb rating might suggest. At home on DVD from our public library.
