Synopsis

Thirteen-year-old Amy Keane lives with her father Raymond in Tallaght, west Dublin. Since losing her mother to illness two years ago, Amy has taken over most of the running of the house. When Raymond's ex-girlfriend reappears into their lives with her baby, Amy feels displaced and troubled, and starts to spend more time away from the house. Then news breaks in the area that a local boy has taken his own life. 'I Used to Live Here' explores the effect this tragedy has on Amy, and on other young people in the community.
