In the oppressive heat of a coastal Irish town, seventeen-year-old Candice, played by Ann Skelly, navigates a world that feels increasingly alien. Suffering from vivid, haunting dreams and the suffocating concern of her police officer father, portrayed by John Lynch, she feels trapped between childhood and a bleak adulthood. Her reality fractures further when she becomes dangerously fascinated with a group of reckless local boys, led by the magnetic Ryan Lincoln. Drawn into their chaotic orbit of lawless freedom, Candice finds a thrilling escape from her sterile home life, even as the line between her dreams and waking life begins to blur. Directed by Aoife McArdle, this atmospheric drama-thriller captures the raw intensity of teenage rebellion and longing, painting a hypnotic and unsettling portrait of a young woman chasing sensation in a landscape devoid of hope, where every kiss feels like a potential betrayal.
