[camera shutter clicks]
Maybe I could add
some blood to your faces.
Maybe you could not.
[Sheela] Okay.
Let's move onto the other look.
Good?
I am not gonna direct you anymore.
Okay?
September, follow July.

[teacher] As usual,
as my treat to you,
we'll start with the maths joke
of the week.
So, which king
loved fractions?
And I mean, loved fractions.
Henry VIII!
-[kids laugh]
-[muffled comments]
[teacher] Anyway,
open your books to page 203.
We'll go over last night's homework.
"Expand and simplify
this following equation:
four-x plus five,
and two-x minus one.
So four-x to the two-x
gives eight-x squared.
-[strained breathing]
-You all right, September?
[muffled sniggers]
Are you classmates to your satisfaction?
-[sniggers]
-[giggles]
[teacher] Can we continue, please?
Okay, so... four-x
with the minus one gives minus-four-x.
-[teacher] Five...
-[screams]
-[scissors snip]
-No, no, no, no. [hyperventilates]
[September] She asked me to.
She had chewing gum stuck in her hair.
You can use
these two days to clean the flat.
We're not eating any more red food.
[July sniffs]
I don't need you to come with me.
[September] Yes, you do.
[bicycle chain clinks]
[July] Did you do that?
Don't be stupid.
I'll fix it for you.
Silly July. Get on.
I'll take you.
[traffic whooshing]
[sweetie paper rustles]
-[children snarl]
-Weirdos.
It's okay. You can go.
[boy] I thought she was suspended.
[boy] So embarrassing...
[July breathes deeply]
[boy] Freak!
[laughing] Look at her.
[female teacher] The seahorse,
and its close relative, the sea dragon,
is the only species
in which the male gets pregnant
and gives birth.
I've got a little video prepared for you.
[video narrator]
In a graceful duet
each partner mirrors the actions
of the other.
[melancholy music plays]
Darkness will soon
draw a veil over the pair
but they will dance on into the night.
Two months later, and the result
of their courtship is revealed.
[stifled snigger]
It's the male
and he's the one
that's carrying the eggs
with rows and rows
of them embedded in his tail.
-[cutlery clinks]

-That way she's staring at Ryan.
-She's starin' him out.
-Look at that.
-Look at her arms.
-That is actually disgusting.
-That is horrible.
Look at their legs.
That is disgusting.
-No. Leave it, leave it. No, no. Leave it.
-No, no.
-It's just embarrassing.
-It's disgusting.

-Oh, my God. It's actually vile.
-What's the reason, man?
-She's so vile.
-Ryan Driver is a prick.
-[Ryan] That is vile.
[girl] Sorry, Miss...
but...
aren't there health regulations which...
ban hairy girls from swimming?
-It's disgusting.
-They really shouldn't be allowed in here.
-I feel sorry for you.
-[teacher] Okay, that's enough.
Draw the lane ropes down.
Let's get started.
Well, come on!
Come on.
July, lane ropes. Okay, noodles.

July!

What did you do!?

-[teacher] I'm gonna lose my job!
-[July gasps]
If I... were kidnapped,
would you offer to take my place?
Yes.
If I lost a limb,
would you get amputated, too?
Yes.
It was my week,
but I let you have it.
Thank you.
Call home if you have a problem,
and I'll come.
It's the fourth time
you've been sent home this year.
Where did you learn
to be like that?
Guess I take after my father.
[Sheela vaping]
Can you make
us some cheese on toast?
[Sheela and July giggling]
-Irish girls.
-They comin' yet?
-They've got like an Irish accent.
-It's a good start.
It's clear to see which one I'd buy.
It doesn't mean you want it back.
It just means you miss it.
But I haven't got a new car, yet.
I'm not rushing into getting a new car.
But when I do see my old car, it's like...
I'm gonna go do some work.
It would be nice to drive it again.
Don't watch this nonsense
for too long, it's late.

What? I mean you never forget!
I didn't mean about Bethan.
Oh, don't take it the wrong way.
Oh, God, sorry, Bethan.
Now, everyone knows
how much I love the weekend off.
And when David told me he wanted
a seventh rest, I just couldn't wait.
I jumped out the shower,
pulled on me favourite T-shirt...
Oh, my God. He is so handsome.
[woman]
I, like, feel like I could just
get pregnant just by looking at him.
Seriously, I just wanna marry him.
Right here, right now.
[gasps]
Oh, my God, oh, my God,
oh, my God, I'm like full of butterflies!
[Sheela] There was a strange sound.
A hooting or a wailing.
It felt like little hands
trying to grab my legs,
but, I-- I-- couldn't run away.
These creatures,
with tiny fingers and hands...
It was, like, touching
their hands petrified my whole body.
[coughs]
[Sheela] I tried to call for help,
but nothing came out.
I felt their long tail around my legs.
It was disgusting.
I felt their little fingers
pinching my n*pples.
And then I felt sick.
Then I continued to wail.
I looked down and saw
their big eyes staring at me.
Like cats with human hands...
and a zebra tail.
And then I saw July.
[therapist, over laptop]
Where was
September during all this?
[Sheela] I don't know. Not there.

Oh, sorry. Excuse me, one...
just one second.

-Oh, f*ck.
-[therapist]
Is everything okay, Sheela?
-Er, yeah. Ju--
Sorry, erm, sorry. What-- Yeah, I, erm...
Sorry. All good. [laughs]
Are you continuing
the ylang-ylang oil treatment?
[Sheela] Oh, er, no. It-- That--
It gave me the poops, you know?
It was bad.

Isn't that your name?
I swear, if you rip
these stiches one more time.
-This is so boring!
-Only boring people get bored.
Just one sec.
-Okay.
-Mhm.
You know, I'm pretty good
at looking after July.
What do you mean?
Nothing.
I know, you're good
at lots of things, July-- September.
Hold that.
Please.
[July stifles a cry]
[September] It's nothing. Silly July.
[September snorting]
See?
If I die, will you die too?
Yes.
If one of us had to die
and we could choose which one,
would you die in my place?
Yes.
Of course, it would be me.
-You promise?
-Yes.
Yes.
Say it to my reflection, too.
If only one of us could remain,
it would be you.
[September] You look beautiful, Mum.
Thank you, September.
-Oop.

It's amazing how much

All these photos. You're lucky.
He would've been proud of you.

-[July] To the toilet.
-What?
-[July] I need to pee.
What are you up to tonight?
I feel as though no one really knows me.
Maybe you do.

Let's see if we can get
an Internet connection.
[September] Sheela...
[July] She's so angry.
She won't be angry forever.
She might be.
Not at you.
Hmm.
September?
[Sheela inhaling deeply]
[September] You sleep on the bottom bunk.
Sleepwalkers can't go down a ladder.
I don't sleepwalk.
Right?
Not yet.
What are those?
-Binoculars, silly July.
-Yes, but I mean...
Well, they were

Was this his room?
Probably.
That's why we're allowed to be here.

[September] Mmm.
I think they eat worms.

[September] Other worms.
Smaller ones.
[July] Like this one.
[September] Yeah. Yeah.
This one would eat that one.

[September] This one is fantastic.

but I just need some time, okay?
Okay.

You've got to eat. You, erm...
There is some cheese left.

-A terrarium.
-Obviously.
How does the Internet work?
-[man] What?
-The Internet.
-How does it work?
-How does the Internet work?
Uh...
I suppose it sends
radio frequencies
between different devices.
Is that good enough for ye'?
-[July] Yes.
-I don't think that's true.

we can see your backside.

-They're so cute together.
-They are. They are very cute.
[indistinct chatter]
[Saoirse] Where do you come from?
Not from here.
I saw your mum in the pub the other day.
She's the Indian woman?
-[boy] Oh, yeah.
-[July] Maybe.
-Yeah.
-She's our mother.
c**t.
[boy] What school do you go to?
We don't go to school.
Fair enough.
Rebellious, you know?
Wait a minute.
You don't go to school?
-Why not?
-[September] Because we don't want to.
-What does it matter?
-And because we don't do anything
we don't want to.
Quiet, isn't she?
[September whistles]
[boy] Go on!
[all cheering]
-[girl] We better keep her.
-Where did that come from?
[girl] Neck it back.
-John, keep her.
-Aw, they'd be so cute.
-They would be cute.
-I like you.
[all] Oohh.
-Whoa.
-[shouts]
[laughter]
[John] I burnt me arse.
[laughter and commotion]
[laughter]
[girl] f*ck' hell.
He nearly set himself on fire.
Do that again.
[laughter]
[muffled conversation]

[September] Natasha.
-[kissing noises]
-[girl] Ah, cute.
[September] Ash.
-[July squeals weirdly]
-[boy] Are you feelin' all right like?
-[boy] Two cans and it's off.
-[girl] She's f*ck' mad.
-[boy] I know.
-[laughter]
-[boy] She's great, isn't she?
-[girl] Yeah, keep her.
[boy] Where do you want to go after this?
Can we get food?
-[girl] Yeah.
-She's the person
-I've always wanted to be.
-What?
Nothing.
[boy] I'm off.
-[John] All right. You comin'?
-[July] Um...
[John] Come on.
-[waves gently splash]
-[happy screams]
Whoo.

[sharp tone rings out]
[sharp tone continues]
[tone fades]
[water running]
[chuckles] You look like sh*t.
Are you on your period, too?
[September] No.
[July] Do you feel any different?
[September] What are you talking about?
[July] You don't want to talk about it?
[September] About what?
I don't like boys.
-I'm asexual.
-Why are you mad at me?
What are you talking about? The video?
The what?
I knew about the video.
I didn't need to see the phone.
I knew what you were doing in the toilet.
I'd seen the messages he was sending you,
and I knew it wasn't him.
Of course, it wasn't him, silly July.
Big, silly July-bug.
September says
eat this jar of mayonnaise.
I don't want to play.
September says
eat this jar of mayonnaise.
[groans]
That's good, July, nearly there.
[July burps]
September says...
kiss your hand.
Break your arm.
September says... dance.
September says slap me.
You lose a life.
September says slap me.
[growls]
-[July gulps]
-[September growls]
[September growls]
[September growls]
[girls growl and laugh]
[both making gorilla noises]
[puppy squeals]
[September] Cut yourself here.
What?
September says cut yourself here.
September says
do it now, or you lose a life.
September says hurry up.
[panting nervously]
[stifled sob]
Mum.
[Sheela] September?
[July] It was an accident.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't hurt.
[Sheela] Are you bored here?
Only boring people are bored.
I know that we all...
have our own way of dealing with things.
I don't think
there are right or wrong ways.
But I have the right to worry.
Oh, God.
That is not it. I'm not...
It is not about having
the right, you know...
I don't know.
[groans softly]
-[July gasps]
-[September whistles]
It should have been you.
[footsteps approaching]
[doorbell rings]
[John] Hello.
I thought I'd come by and say hello.
I wanted to see you.
I brought a chocolate cake.
I baked it myself.
I didn't, actually.
Is your mother here?
Um, my sister's upstairs.
-September's upstairs.
-Right.
Shall we go get her?
What's that?
Er, a terrarium.
We're raising earth worms.
-Okay. For fishing?
-No.
Okay.
How come I've never met you before?
Do you visit your grandparents?
I live on the other side of the dune.
It's a farm.
My dad has cows and land.
He grows wheat, barely, corn.
My brother works with him,
but I don't wanna take over the farm.
I want to do something else.
I don't know what yet,
but I'll find something.
You know?
My brother, he, er, he gets hammered
at least every weekend.
And gets into these bad car accidents
all the time.
Often, each time, he comes up
with a new story as to what happened.
A deer that ran straight at him. Or a dog.
Or a tree that fell down during a storm.
Crap like that, but I know he's lying
and that it was really
because he was blind drunk.
Even my dad knows,
but he won't say anything.
He just claims on the insurance,
and buys new cars all the time.
And then, it starts again.
And my mam, she doesn't care either.
Just wants her darling son working
hard on the farm. That's all that matters.
But one day, he's gonna get
into a terrible car accident and I...
My sister isn't here. She's upstairs...
[John] You know,
it was my first time, too.
What?
[John] What?
Uh...
What-- What do you mean?
Nothing.
It was your first time, too.
Wasn't it?
-What are you talking about?
-On the beach.
It was my first time
and it was your first time.
It was September's first time.
Are you making fun of me?
My sister's here.
[John] I can meet her, if you want.
I'd like to meet her.
You're stupid.
You've already met her.
At the beach.
We were both there.
You don't remember?
-You slept with her!
-Wait, I don't know
-what you're talking about.
-Stop this game!
[glass smashes]
[panic tone]
[expl*si*n]

[girl screams]
[scream echoes]
[shrill scream]
[gasps, pants]
[silence]
[girl's giggle echoes]
[giggles]
[indistinct whispering]
[male shopper] Dirty wh*re.
[Sheela] What did you say?
[loudly] What did you say?
[boy] Dirty wh*re.
[voices echo]
[July] September says...
dig a hole in your belly.
So I can carry on living inside you.
July. July. Give it to me.
-[July gasps]
-Give it to me. It's okay, it's okay.
You're fine. You're fine. Give it to me.
Give it to me.
Look at me. Look at me. Look at me.
Look at me. Look at me.
Okay, look at me.
Okay, good girl. Good girl.
Okay, you're okay.
[Sheela] You have
to stop wearing her clothes.
Stop imitating her ways, you know.
Her voice.
You'll realise you are now free
to eat whatever you want.
Talk to people normally.
Maybe even have friends.
Maybe even have a boyfriend.
Well, I don't recommend that.
Don't do what I did.
Your father was a prick.
...pervert who destroyed me
God... but now,
you know what? You and I are free.
And we won't let ourselves be
impeded by anything whatsoever, okay?
We, er...
We'll be together.
We will-- We will start a new life.
Yeah.
You will go to university.
Yeah, I'm gonna help you succeed.
Yes, yes. Oh...
We could go out together. You know?
[imitates music beats]
Yeah, gosh-- Oh, I will make
a collection of clothes just for you.
We won't ever leave one another.
And, God, we'll be a great duo.
We won't be scared of anything together.
We'll tell all those arseholes
who call us wh*res to go f*ck themselves.
Erm, okay, okay, okay.
Come up. Er... Oh,
do you know what? Oh, my gosh.
We might even go to India.
Yeah, go and see where
we scattered your grandmother's ashes.
Hm, God, well... I dunno. Or not, I mean,
She was a poisonous mother, God.
Just like your father's mother.
Honestly, she was like,
"Oh, Sheela, yeah, where are you from?"
I'd be like, "Em, I'm from the UK,
thank you very much."
And she'd be like,
"No, where are you really from?"
Gosh, wouldn't you stop?
She'd ask, if I wanted curry.
I'd be, "No, thank you!"
Why did we come back to this house
haunted by all those
old b*stards who couldn't understand
what their darling, beautiful boy
was doing with a girl like me?
I know, it looks like
I've lost a lot of time,
but I've been successful.
I've made my own brand,
my own daughter who is just like me.
Oh, God.
You remind me
so much of myself at your age.
Okay, it's true I was more resourceful.
I was good at partying
and flirting, but you like flirting, too.
[whistling]
Hm.
["Bad Girls" by Nightcore plays]
You look too good to come home with me
I like 'em hot, I like 'em freaky
Good girls never have sh*t to say
Bad girls come my way
I like full-fat, not sugar free
I like all that, not just pretty
Good girls never know how to play
But bad girls come my way
Yeah
Who want a good girl on the weekend
[Sheela] Oh, f*ck! Oh, God. Oh.
Okay. I...
[music continues]
[music stops]
[Sheela] Are you okay?
What...? Look at me. Look at me.
Erm... Oh, God. Look, erm...
Okay, I think I have some wipes
in the back. Just wait one second.

["Mountain Time" by Molly Nilsson plays]
I'm always dreaming I could run away
As long as I remember
It's been that way
There's nothing for me happening here
Or maybe there is
Maybe I'm running out of fear
Or maybe life's only just begun
When you're on the run
I go out each night
Expecting more of the world
Something new and exciting
Something I've never heard
They want you to grow up
So that you can have their babies
Is there nothing else
Out there waiting for us maybe?
Some girls would just rather have fun
And we're on the run
On the run
On the run
On the run
Somethin' tells me
I'd be better off
If I stayed in my mind
It's like everyone round here
Have their watches set to Mountain Time
Their perfect lives in paradise
Was never meant for me
f*ck it
I think I'd rather be on the run
I'll go out each night expecting
More of the world
On the run
Something new and exciting
Something I've never heard
Let them grow their beards
And talk careers
But all their words
Have lost their meaning
I'd never wanna do
What they expect me to
Something entirely new
Something entirely new
I'm always dreaming I could run away
On the run
As long as I remember
It's been that way
