Belfast: three girls are living for the weekend, their wild friendship the only thing that matters.
Harley: hurtling from club to club in a wild and blurry quest for meaning.
Maggie: navigating a situationship with an unavailable woman, and, of course, therapy.
Róise: only bothering to turn up to her boring office job due to an ill-advised crush on her boss.
But the three of them used to be four. And now, one year on from a tragic accident that almost ripped them apart, Harley, Maggie and Róise still can’t face up to any of it: to adulthood, the future, and to each other.
