Sisters July (Mia Tharia) and September (Pascale Kann) are as inseparable as they are different - while September is protective and suspicious of others, July looks at the world with curiosity and openness. Their dynamic worries their single mother Sheela (Rakhee Thakrar), who doesn't know what to do with them. When September is expelled from school, July is left to fend for herself and begins to assert her independence - which doesn't go unnoticed by September. Tensions between the three women increase when they seek refuge in an old vacation home in Ireland. There, July realizes that her relationship with September is changing in ways she can neither fully understand nor control - along with a series of surreal encounters that push the family to their limits.
