A mourning filmmaker from the US and her Irish assistant tour the West of Ireland to research for a film about a legendary pirate queen from the 16th century.
The story of a young man who accidentally kills the love of his life in a car crash, and seeks resolution and escape with her mother. This psychologically complex yet subtle story brings us into post-recession rural Ireland. A community has turned its back on who they believe is a perpetrator rather than a victim. Steven has done time for the incident, and can’t find a way to reconcile himself to his new life. He turns to his dead girlfriend’s mother for solace, and a strange relationship unfolds.
Eddie y Amber deciden organizar una relación para evitar que todos especulen sobre su sexualidad. Eddie está ansioso por seguir a su padre en el ejército, mientras que Amber sueña con mudarse al centro liberal de Londres. El plan parece sólido, pero a medida que su arreglo comienza a desmoronarse, la negación de Eddie se hace más profunda cuando Amber se da cuenta de que un futuro peligroso le espera a su mejor amiga a menos que ella intervenga.
