Uninspired artist Katie's life in New York, and almost everyone in it, has been about as genuine as a Prada handbag from Chinatown. When it all comes crashing down she flees back to Ireland. There she finds her dormant artistic inspiration unexpectedly reignited in a small rural town.
Uninspired artist Katie's life in New York, and almost everyone in it, has been about as genuine as a Prada handbag from Chinatown. When it all comes crashing down she flees back to Ireland. There she finds her dormant artistic inspiration unexpectedly reignited in a small rural town.
However, it is not the beautiful landscape that has captured her imagination. It is the local men.
Katie sets out to create a collection of nude male portraits but before long the story of her project grows a skin as it winds its way in whispers and murmurs around the town. Speculation is rife about what she is offering the men in return for their life-modelling. Assumptions and accusations soon turn Katie's utopian escape into a minefield.

What would you do if you were told that your unborn baby will be profoundly handicapped? What choices would you make?
Sam Leahy is a shy, fifteen-year-old boy navigating two social worlds: the uptight bullies at his all-boys' private school and the small uncouth gang in his neighbourhood.
Girls, sex, drinking, drugs, fights, destruction of property and a dead body - it's a lot for a teen in school to handle, especially when he's trying to figure out who he is and who his friends really are.
Inside those walls was a man, as young as I was, learning how to become a man of God. He owns my heart to this day.
