- Hello.
-Why is he not speaking?
[shrugs]
[silence]
- Hello. Why are you not speaking?
[silence]
- But if you're not gonna be
turning up for your appointments,
then that's gonna have a
knock-on effect on your money.
- That's because if you're not
gonna attend the interview to
try, and actively seek work employment,
[keyboard clicking]
then you don't, you're
not entitled to the benefits.
You don't get benefits for
just for staying in the house.
- I need to see somebody about my
Universal Credit Payment, please.
[papers crumpling]
- Have you got an appointment?
- Well, No, but can I just see somebody?
I've been trying to phone,
and I can't even get through.
I- I need to, I-I can't get a budget loan.
- Okay. Hold on, hold
on. Let me see [inaudble]-
- Now, Miss Lennon, the last
time you were in was June,
so about 6 months ago?
- Uh-huh. Aye. Uh-huh.
- Uh, and it says here, you
were looking for work at the time.
Are you still actively seeking employment?
- Um... Uh-huh. I mean, I've
not had an interview or anything,
but, um... I mean, his nursery is closed,
So, there's nobody else to look after him.
- And his father?
[Woman in the background:
I don't have money for food]
- We don't really hear from him.
[Woman in the background: How
am I supposed to feed my weans?]
- Does he give you
any financial assistance?
[murmuring voice in the background]
- He's not really got much himself, so...
- [woman in the background: Okay]
[murmuring voice in the background]
- Let's have a look, and see what there is.
[keyboard clicking]
[woman in background:
Look, I've just walked here.]
I don't even have
money for the fucking bus.
I have nothing in the house.
I have no electricity. I have no heating.
- I understand your situation.
But coming in here shouting,
and swearing at folk, isn't
gonna get you anywhere.
- Look, I just walked here.
I phoned here three times.
First time they tell me it would
be the b-beginning of November.
Then, it was the beginning of December.
What am I supposed to do?
My weans keep asking how there are no...
- Somebody is...
- What am I supposed to do now?
- Somebody is gonna come.
- And first off Miss Folan,
put your mask back on.
And if you listen to my colleague,
he's already told you, come back tomorrow.
- Look, I've been here three times.
- Come back tomorrow.
- What am I supposed to do?
- Miss Folan, that's not my fault.
- I've just spent the rest of my change.
- Come back tomorrow.
- What am I supposed to do?
- Sorry, come back...
-Sorry? What good is sorry to
me? What am I supposed to do?

- Ronan!
[child crying]
- I thought if I'd saw him
again, I'd scream at him.
Tell everyone what he
is. But I didn't. I just froze.
[child temper tantrum]

[child crying and screaming] - No.
- Ronan.
[child crying and screaming]
[static noise]
- Mm-hmm. What, that one, that white? Sshh.
[static noise]
- Every day feels just the same.
The days go into the weeks,
and the weeks go into the years.
Every day is just the same.
[birds chirping]
[child whimpering]
[birds chirping]
[telephone sound]
[birds chirping]
- I'm Jackie, I'm from the
community nurse support team.
- Sorry, I forgot you were coming.
- Can I just give you that?
[birds chirping]
Okay, right now.
I see here that Ronan's had his first visit
with the pediatric nurse,
and he's waiting on a date
coming through for an Autism assessment.
- Yeah.
[child whimpering]
- How old is he?
- He's five. Well, he's-he's nearly five.
- I see. [chuckles] He's big, isn't he?
- I know. I know.
- Well, this is just a brief visit
to see how you're both doing.
Now, how is his speech getting on?
Does he have any words yet?
- Erm... He's got words, he's got phrases,
but he is not communicating.
- Has he not had a visit
from speech therapy?
[child whimpering]
- To be honest, there's
not really been anything,
for the whole of lockdown.
There's not really been any support.
- The urge to kick this
woman in the leg is very strong.
- Well, look, I'll give you
these leaflets to read,
just while you're waiting on
this assessment coming through.
[water running in the background]
- Is his sleeping okay?
- No, no, doesn't he doesn't
really sleep, to be honest at all.
- [crosstalk]...
- Doesn't sleep. Doesn't
speak. Doesn't call me Mummy.
- I'll put your name down for it, okay?
- Yeah, okay.
- Oh no. Wait a minute.
That's been canceled too.
That's another thing.
[child crying]
- How is mum?
- Most of the time I feel
like an animated corpse.
The rest of the time, I just feel nothing.
- Um, yeah, Okay I think. Right, enough.
- You're getting a bit much?
- Um, I try it's not that easy
with Ronan. Eh, but I try.
- And how is he getting on at nursery?
- Eh, well, the nursery
is closed obviously,
because of lockdown, and, but it...
[toy train running]
Well, he has a lot of tantrums,
just because he gets frustrated.
Erm, He's a self-harmer,
so he bangs his head.
- Goodness. [laughs] How are
you getting on there, Ronan?
Here's a questionnaire
that we give all the carers.
If you just want to have
a look at it, and fill it in.
Thanks. There's a pen.
[child playing sound]
- So I will hen? You tell
the truth, and they send
the social worker around your door.
[writing sound]
- And, what about family?
Are you getting any help from them,
like support from your mother?
- Um...
[child whimpering]
My mother doesn't really keep well,
So, she's not really able to watch him.
[child whimpering]
[door closes]
[birds chirping]
[birds chirping]
[deep breathing]
- I remember reading
somewhere, people with depression
experience time differently.
Time seems to slow, and
stop when you're down.
And then it speeds up
again when you're happy,
but there's something else.
Another kind of time, time that
seems to open up, and slow down.
And it takes you over.
And in that moment you can feel it.
You can touch it with your hand.
[crow clacking]
It's eternity.
Mum, Mum it's me.
[loud footsteps] [child whimpering]
- Could you not have phoned
me, and told me you were coming?
[child laughing]
- Well, for some reason I thought
you might be happy to see me?
- Well, I am. I've not seen the wean.
- Well, that's not my fault.
- Well, it's not mine. Where are you going?
- I'm looking for something.
- Hi, Ronan. What's this, Ronan, look?
What has your Granny got you?
[siren sound]
- What's granny got you?
- He doesn't speak.
- He what?
[door slams]
[door opening]
- Morgan? what are you
putting all that stuff out for?
[thud]
[child jumping]
- You want some of these?
What is it you're looking for?
- Something.
- What?
- Just something, okay?
- What?
[sighs]
- No use in dragging up the past.
[police siren]
- Eh I'm not dragging up the past.
I'm trying to put the past behind me.
Thanks very much. Unlike some people.
[police siren]
- What's that supposed to mean?
- Oh fuck this. I'm off.
Ronan?
- Wait a minute, Morgan?
[heavy footsteps]
Morgan?
[heavy footsteps]
Morgan?
[door opening]
- See you later.
- Morgan it's nearly Christmas.
[child crying]
Bye, Ronan.
[footsteps]
- Christmas!
[laughs]
[door closing]
[door locked]
[child crying]
- I can remember being
wee, standing in that tunnel.
I thought if I come
back to this exact spot,
at the exact same time.
10 years, 20 years, 50 years,
I can jump through time.
[plastic rustling]
I will be an old woman
then, but it will be the same.
In your mind, you can jump through time.
You can transcend time.

She's a good-looking wee

War was knocking at my door.
So, I left through the back!
He sent the soldiers after me,
see my struggle.
There is no safety for me.
I am naked because of it.
Friends and family,
they must not see me stumble and fall.
I set my eyes on innocence today.
She makes me smile.
I hope she comes out to play.
Oh, why are the innocents
exposed in this battle?
The Destroyer is here,
and he is very subtle.
She came out to play again.
[woods piling]
[birds chirping]
I see her pain, but she cannot say.
[fire crackling]
That is when he does.
He takes our voice.
Here child.
Play once again.
Have hope

because we are too many.
- Hello? Hiya, it's me. Yeah, we're well.
How are you?

- God has created me to
do him some definite service.
He's committed some work to me, which he's
not committed to another.
I have my mission. I may
never know it in this life,
but I shall be told it, in the next.
I am a link in a chain.
A bond of connections between persons.
He has not created me
for nought. I shall do good.
I shall do his work. I
shall be an angel of peace.
A preacher of truth in my own
place, while not intending it.
If I do but keep his commandments.
- Mrs. Lennon, how are you?
- Good evening, Father.
- How's your family?
- Aye, we're all well.

Remember, you're always welcome here.

Do you live here?
It's bogging. Look, he's

of a talented and creative
young man. He expressed
himself through poetry,
and a love of music.
Many of you know his love
for his football team, and
as a talented young football player.
But he was also a brother, a son,
part of a close-knit family.

right next to the two old ladies.
- 28, that's no age.
- I know, right?
- Oh, no.
- Here, do you know what happened?
- Well, I think he had
cocaine in his system,
but they don't know
exactly if it was that, or
his heart or something else.
I'm not gonna ask them
that question to find out.

You're welcome to stay the
night here. [muffling clears].
We have very good family accommodation.
Or if you wish to stay
in the room with him,
we can make you up a bed here as well.
- We have to get all the information.
It's protocol when a
child's injured in the home.
It's just a few questions.
So, who was watching
Ronan when this happened?
Was it you?

were looking for work at the time.
Are you still actively seeking employment?

not had an interview or anything,
but, um... I mean, his nursery is closed,
So, there's nobody else to look after him.

put your mask back on.
And if you listen to my colleague,
he's already told you, come back tomorrow.

with the pediatric nurse,
and he's waiting on a date
coming through for an Autism assessment.
- Yeah.
[child whimpering]
- How old is he?
- He's five. Well, he's-he's nearly five.
- I see. [chuckles] He's big, isn't he?
- I know. I know.
- Well, this is just a brief visit
to see how you're both doing.
Now, how is his speech getting on?
Does he have any words yet?
- Erm... He's got words, he's got phrases,
but he is not communicating.
- Has he not had a visit
from speech therapy?
[child whimpering]
- To be honest, there's
not really been anything,
for the whole of lockdown.
There's not really been any support.
- The urge to kick this
woman in the leg is very strong.
- Well, look, I'll give you
these leaflets to read,
just while you're waiting on
this assessment coming through.
[water running in the background]
- Is his sleeping okay?
- No, no, doesn't he doesn't
really sleep, to be honest at all.
- [crosstalk]...
- Doesn't sleep. Doesn't
speak. Doesn't call me Mummy.
- I'll put your name down for it, okay?

The rest of the time, I just feel nothing.

- You're getting a bit much?
- Um, I try it's not that easy
with Ronan. Eh, but I try.
- And how is he getting on at nursery?
- Eh, well, the nursery
is closed obviously,
because of lockdown, and, but it...
[toy train running]
Well, he has a lot of tantrums,
just because he gets frustrated.
Erm, He's a self-harmer,
so he bangs his head.
- Goodness. [laughs] How are
you getting on there, Ronan?
Here's a questionnaire
that we give all the carers.
If you just want to have
a look at it, and fill it in.
Thanks. There's a pen.
[child playing sound]
- So I will hen? You tell
the truth, and they send
the social worker around your door.
[writing sound]
- And, what about family?
Are you getting any help from them,

somewhere, people with depression
experience time differently.
Time seems to slow, and
stop when you're down.
And then it speeds up
again when you're happy,
but there's something else.
Another kind of time, time that
seems to open up, and slow down.
And it takes you over.
And in that moment you can feel it.
You can touch it with your hand.

- I'm looking for something.

good on the CAT scan.
He does have a mild concussion.
So, we're gonna have
to keep him in overnight.
Just so we can monitor him.
You're welcome to stay the
night here. [muffling clears].
We have very good family accommodation.
Or if you wish to stay
in the room with him,
we can make you up a bed here as well.
- We have to get all the information.
It's protocol when a
child's injured in the home.
It's just a few questions.
So, who was watching
Ronan when this happened?
Was it you?
[sirens]
- Everything seems to
get too much sometimes.
Too much pain for one person to take.
But a mother knows pain is necessary.

- [Cold Days from the Birdhouse
Song by The Twilight Sad plays]
Another hotel with ruined plans,
Romantic gesture with ruined plans,
And so, you make it your own,
But this is where your arm can't go,
You make it your own,
Another phone call with ruined plans,
Romantic gesture with ruined plans,
And so, you make it your own,
but this is where your arm can't go,
You make it your own,
but this is where your arm can't go,
And your red sky at night won't follow me.
It won't follow me now,
I won't wear your shoes,
and I won't clip your wings.
[Music beats]
[Closing Sequence]
I see it when you lied,
We all look so surprised,
And will you come back? You come back?
And breathing in smoke signs,
Like a puppet told to drive,
And will you come back? You come back?
And your red sky at night won't follow me.
It won't follow me now,
And your red sky at night won't follow me.
It won't follow me now,
And your red sky at night won't follow me.
It won't follow me now,
And your red sky at night won't follow me.
You won't follow me now.
Where are your manners?
So, where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
So, where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
So, where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
So, where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
And where are your manners?
So, where are your manners?
