DBN Productions

An intense drama about Ireland’s dark past

A scandal has struck deep at the heart of the school.

The boys sense it, the teachers whisper about it, and the Headmaster knows all too well where it might lead.

But the recently hired Ms. Turley remains in the dark, preoccupied with getting by as a single mother in a society dominated by the Irish Catholic Church while doing her best for her own son who has recently started as a student.

Caught up in her own struggle she’s unaware just how far down the dark path to scandal she’s already come…
