The transition to teenage life brings Katie and her friends to places they did not expect when they push the boundaries of their circle and try on a maturity they are not yet ready for. A bursting coming-of-age story with a twist, revealing the greyness we create to make sense of the world, rooted in deep friendships they hope can stand the test of huge change.
It is summer in Dublin in 1998. These young teenagers are all attitude, high ponies and low-waist jeans. Everyone is talking about sex, but no one is talking about consent. What Katie thought would be a summer of hanging out in the estate, blaring her favourite tunes and playing football with her best mate Steo became a summer of expectation, crossing lines they didn’t know existed, and trying to find their way back to each other.
