Northern Lights tells the story of two grieving strangers whose worlds collide on a rainy night in Dublin. Revelations, confessions, secrets, and lies envelop this darkly humorous, intimate series of hope.
It's Friday night in Dublin, and the rain is torrential. From his flat overlooking the River Liffey, Lloyd notices a young woman standing on the bridge below his window.
In a flashback, Áine searches desperately for Seán, who has gone missing. When he is found, it's clear he's struggling with his mental health and needs help.
Alone in the pub, Áine remembers Seán's 'Fuck It' List and his dream to see the Northern Lights. Lloyd arrives in the pub - he doesn't want to halt their conversation just yet.
Lloyd and Áine sing karaoke in his flat. In flashback, we see Lloyd and Denise, very much in love, host a housewarming barbecue for their closest friends. But the fun is punctured when the conversation turns to having children.
In flashback, we see Lloyd and Denise's excitement at their 20 week scan. In the present, Lloyd and Áine admit they aren't sure if they regret the kiss. But what do they do now?
Áine goes to Pauline's house and they share a heartfelt conversation. She then goes to mend things with her own family.
