  • Description
  • Details

Katy lives in Newtown in Wellington, New Zealand. She lives with her parents above the family business, a fish and chip shop. Katy’s father came to NZ from Greece and she knows very little about her Greek family—her father doesn’t like to talk about it. He is distant and remote which does not help Katy’s struggle with anxiety and compulsive behaviour disorders. She is a cutter, and though she sees a counsellor, this is a dark secret. She starts dating and this increases her anxieties. When they hear her grandmother is ill in Greece and maybe dying, the family decide to go for a visit. This is the chance for her to get some answers about her past. The visit to Greece uncovers some dark family secrets.
