Damage

The fragile façade of an outwardly normal and happy family is gradually broken down after a reprehensible act of sexual violence leaves a young girl forever changed. From the appearance of their elegant home in the suburbs of Dublin, the Cahills seem to be the picture of happiness. Young Emma has recently begin to follow her father Aidan and her mother Michelle into the world of modeling, and in order to celebrate Emma's twenty-first birthday party her parents have arranged a lavish party. As the big day draws near, it's gradually revealed that husband and wife lead separate lives, and that both seem more interested in pursuing outside relationships than focusing on their marriage. When Emma is raped on the night of her party, it remains unclear whether her emotionally fractured family will be able to fully support her. Either way, Emma refuses to remain quiet about the incident, outwardly naming her attacker and sparking what threatens to become a heated legal battle.
