Dating Amber

The film is set in 1995 in Ireland, where two teenagers, the outsiders Eddie and Amber, decide to hide their sexuality from the rural Irish town where they live, pretending to be a heterosexual couple. Amber wants to escape a life overshadowed by her father’s suicide to lead a lesbian punk lifestyle in a more liberal environment. She is saving money to move to London by secretly renting out caravans to teenage couples who need some privacy in a trailer park run by her mother. Eddie is not sure about his sexuality and intends to follow his insensitive and often absent father into the Irish army.
