European Feature Film Competition at the Münster 2025 Film Festival: A moving coming-of-age story about family, belonging and second chances. Awarded Best Film in the Generation section at this year's Berlinale.
17-year-old Christy is at a crossroads. He has just been kicked out of his foster home in the quiet suburbs and moved in with his older brother Shane, who lives in the working class neighborhood in the north of the Irish city of Cork. This is only a temporary solution for Shane, but Christy begins to feel at home with him, gets involved with the local people and makes friends. Through the extended family - as bad as their reputation is - he is even able to reconnect with his past. However, Shane tries to keep him away from his relatives. He wants a better life for Christy at all costs, even if it means pushing him away. After many years of separation, the brothers are faced with the task of reconciling their turbulent pasts and deciding what the future should look like. (OmU)
