男孩J的少年时代几乎在变装酒吧里度过，因为缺乏父爱，长期帮表演者梳妆理发，想成为变装皇后的憧憬也愈加强烈。男孩终于站上舞台的一刻，15年未见的拳击手父亲A却从人群中冲出，狠揍了他一顿。父子间从未平复的伤口和悔恨是否能为两人的生命带来和解呢？
The film opens in a bleak police station where celebrated war correspondent Kate Rafter (Seagrove) faces questions from a psychiatrist, Dr Shaw (Kurylenko), as they work through the painful events of Rafter’s life. A horrific incident in war-torn Iraq and the death of her mother (Steed) have brought a haunted Rafter home to Herne Bay, a place she believed she had escaped forever. Her resentful sister (Friel) has not made her sister welcome and her forbearing husband Paul (Miles) fails to broker peace. Whilst packing up her mother’s belongings from her childhood home, Rafter comes to believe there is something strange and terrifying happening in the house next door.
