Six-year-old Eamon loves his mother...a bit too much, perhaps. He shares her bed, views his father with disdain, and pushes aside any and all threats to her attention. Things are about to come to a head, though, as a seaside vacation brings the family's tensions a boil. A wicked spin on the Oedipus complex, writer-director Margaret Corkery's amazingly confident debut is a darkly comic delight.
