Description:
Having disappeared from her quiet border town in Northern Ireland a year prior, Kelly (Nika McGuigan) suddenly shows up on the doorstep of her sister, Lauren (Nora-Jane Noone). Born within a year of each other, these “Irish twins” share a deep bond despite their differences: Kelly, the wild one, makes Lauren’s married life and factory job look like pillars of conventionality. Kelly’s return, however, quickly stirs up long-repressed traumas between the sisters, and in their community, that threaten this veneer of stability. And Lauren soon must choose between the life she knows and her connection to her sister. [TIFF]
