Set in present day industrial North Wales, Helen spends her nights packing chickens and her days caring for a dying mother-figure, Gwen. Helen’s world takes an unexpected turn with the return of Joanne. They were the objects of the other’s unspoken teenage passions twenty years ago. One night, encouraged by Helen, Joanne starts a playful wooing game that re-awakens their youthful feelings.
