DESCRIPTION

Embarking on the journey of single fatherhood, Finbar Flanagan grapples with the intricacies of assuming the maternal role for his three children in their rural Irish abode, all while upholding his paternal responsibilities. While bonds with many others have fractured, the connection between Finbar and his children has deepened, fostering an unwavering sense of faith and loyalty among them. 

By involving the children as photographers, there's an intentional parity drawn between father and child, reflected in the often poignant and melancholic imagery. This dual dynamic — Finbar as both father and mother, and the children stepping into maternal roles — unleashes a whirlwind of emotional turmoil, affecting Finbar and his children in various ways. Their journey resembles an emotional roller coaster, marked by unexpected twists and a mental fog that clouds their thoughts, exacerbated by ongoing controversies and injustices that threaten the family's stability. Caught in this turbulent cycle, they feel as though they re trapped in a never-ending spin cycle of a tumble dryer.
