A 16-year-old homeless girl on the streets of Sligo town. For Samanta, reaching out for help has only ever ended in closed doors, but she has a hidden gift for songwriting and performance. When a music shop owner spots her talent, she has a chance to finally accept that music could be the open door she’s been waiting for.

Based on what happened to 15-year-old Ann Lovett in 1984. When she wakes up that morning, Ann feels that she is going to give birth that day. She puts on her school uniform, but instead of going to school she is terrified of what is to come and quietly wanders the streets, hoping for human kindness and help, hoping for a miracle, while afraid to approach anyone.

Creative, quiet and stuck in the past, in 2015 Annette came face to face with the real world.

A young woman, suffering from loneliness, attempts to create a beautiful, meaningful opera with the help of her talking teddy bear.
