Synopsis

Two actors play two lovers who, before meeting death in a car crash, drift through muddled memories and moments in search of one another. Photographed across North Dublin and Detroit City, this somewhat autobiographical film of the director’s travels is cross-stitched with a fictional, cryptic narrative, excavating the lost time and treasured moments of its two protagonists and placing the viewer in an almost oneiric state.
