The film got mixed reviews upon its release in 1991. Renee is eventually revealed to be Jimmy's mother, whom his father, Sam, had claimed was dead. Rose, who has feelings for Jimmy herself, decides to make him jealous by sleeping with a young lion tamer from a travelling circus (although she claims her real motivation was to set the animals free).
When she looks at Jimmy, he's at once infatuated with this mystifying woman. They pursue her to the beach and at last Renee speaks to them. One day, while watching people at the train station, a stylish older woman, Renee Baker (Beverly D'Angelo), stands out so imposingly from the dull townsfolk that Jimmy and Rose decide to follow her, infatuated with knowing everything about her.
To kill time, Rose and Jimmy make up stories about strangers on the street. They spend their days wandering the streets and piers.
Two teenage friends, Jimmy (Niall Byrne) and Rose (Lorraine Pilkington) live in the small seaside town of Bray, Ireland.
