Siblings Grant and Niamh, and their ailing Grandfather Eric were born and raised as Anglican, middle class and repressed. As Grant looks to dedicate his life in service of the church, Niamh is starting to doubt her commitment to her faith.

This gently comedic family drama explores the ways our relationship with our faith can bring us together and pull us apart as well as asking the question: how does a religious upbringing shape the way we encounter each other and the world? Niamh and Grant’s commitment to their family as well as to each other and their faith is tested every step of the way.
