Screams From Atlantis

What happens when the weight of the past clashes with the promise of a new life? In Screams from Atlantis, set in 1970s Ireland, two brothers confront loss, duty, and the magnetic pull of a commune led by Penny. As buried pain resurfaces, they must decide: hold onto what’s familiar or risk everything for freedom?
