One unremarkable afternoon, Rosie watched her daughter Saoirse cycle into town, expecting to hear the slam of the door when she returned a few hours later.

But the slam never came.


Eight years on, Rosie is the only person who believes that her child might one day return home.

Will this belief come at the cost of everything she has left?
