When their mother is given only weeks to live, Iris (Samantha Morton) and Rose (Claire Rushbrook) become torn apart by jealousy. Iris is now convinced that Rose was always the favourite, and rejects both her sister and boyfriend, leaving her job and her flat. She takes to the streets, in need of love, but only finds danger. Carine Adler's directorial debut won the Critics Prize at the Toronto International Film Festival and the Michael Powell Award at Edinburgh.
