Dating Amber
They have their secret.
Directed by David Freyne
Produced by Atomic 80, Wrong Men
A warm, character-driven comedy-drama about two best friends navigating identity and self-acceptance through a fake relationship that forces them to confront their deepest fears.
Eddie and Amber decide to stage a relationship in order to stop everyone speculating about their sexuality. Eddie is keen to follow his dad into the military, while Amber dreams of moving to the liberal hub of London. The plan seems solid, but as their arrangement begins to fall apart, Eddie’s denial gets deeper as Amber realizes that a perilous future awaits her best friend unless she intervenes.
