The Story

Having been raised in a community that champions toxic-masculinity as the measure of a man, Kieran has an unhealthy concept of what it means to be a man.

At the start of the film Kieran is juggling his two lives.

One is in Dublin, where he is perceived by his peers in his acting troupe as a cis boy. Even his group of close friends don't know Kieran is trans.

The other is at home, in a small town outside of Dublin. Knowing that his family, especially his mother, wouldn't accept his gender identity Kieran is forced to "play the part" of a girl there.

In the midst of managing his dysfunctional family and his aspirations to be a successful actor, Kieran falls relucatatnly in love with the new neighbor boy. Egan also doesn't know he is trans. 

As they get closer Kieran must learn to be more vulnerable and honest with others and himself, or else...

Kieran

Kieran is a transmasculine boy with big ambitions. Through love and loss he learns the most important leason of all.

Mam

Wanting to maintain a facade of “normalcy,” especially after traumatic family loss, Mam imposes strict gender roles and expectations on her daughter, Kay. (Whose character name is Kieran because outside of the family and small town he is known as a boy).

Dad

Dad is the emotionally stunted mediator between Kieran and Mam. If he chooses a side, he could loose someone else. 

Egan

Egan is Kieran's new nieghbor from England whose unabashful queerness stirs things up for Kieran.

Mrs. Doyle

Mrs. Doyle is a matter of fact and flamboyant direcor at the Dublin theater. As a director often does, she (at times) acts as Kieran’s emotional spirit guide.

Alastar

Alastar is Kieran's older brother, who he looks up to very much.
