Episode 4
Malcom鈥檚 attempts to give up the drink have not been going well. But today is the day! And a doting grandmother is excited to show off the new baby to her neighbours.
A caravan-park on the Northern Irish coast is beset by a series of impossible thefts, forcing its disparate group of residents to come together to find their missing belongings. However, in this uncanny place where static caravans teeter on an eroding cliff-edge overlooking the ocean, each holidaymaker soon finds themselves similarly wavering between certainty and doubt; one world and the next; the past and the present; and even reality and fantasy.
