Synopsis
Rugby captain Richard Karlsen has grown up in an affluent part of Ireland and has matured into a kind, responsible and dependable young man. At least, that is the way he is perceived. But nobody is perfect - especially not at eighteen years of age. Richard's burgeoning interest in a teammate's girlfriend creates more than tension and a loss of team spirit. This powerful, brilliantly realistic drama examines what drives seemingly pleasant people to commit terrible actions that have devastating consequences. It's loosely adapted from the novel Bad Day in Blackrock, which itself is said to be based on a tragic real-life story.
