In Donegal in 1999, artist Saoirse lives a seemingly perfect life.
She doesn't talk about her past to her husband Daithí and their two lovely daughters.
But then she wins a prestigious award which comes with publicity. Saoirse panics. Her family and friends don't know that she has been on the run since she was seventeen, stealing an identity to survive; Ireland wasn't her first home - and now her past life is catching up with her.
