WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Caitlin (Harrier), an American student studying at the Glasgow School of Art, has her world rocked by the unexpected death of her father.

Songwriter Simon Neil makes his screenwriting debut with the latest project by filmmaker Jamie Adams – now on his third (!) major release of the year – which deals with several subjects including grief and friendship.
