Running time: 100 minutes

A bereaved mother bonds with a homeless youth in this moving story of grief and redemption Divorcee Margaret (Rachel Griffiths) lives a solitary life in Dublin, where she owns a charity shop and enjoys a daily dip in the public pool. Her world is turned upside down when ex-husband Matt (Michael McElhatton) reveals that their 18-year-old son has been found dead. At the pool, Margaret meets Joe (Barry Keoghan), a young homeless man she once assisted when she found him unconscious in a deserted lane. She generously offers him her spare room, but their unorthodox developing relationship is threatened by Matt's grief-driven rage and Joe's involvement with a violent gang. Talented Australian actress Rachel Griffiths gets a rare leading role in Irish writer/director Rebecca Daly's powerful and compassionate follow up to The Other Side of Sleep. There's able support from Game of Thrones star Michael McElhatton as Matt and Barry Keoghan as the feral Joe.
