Rebecca O'Connor
Bee, a young mother, is stuck in limbo at her parents' rural Irish home. Unable to return to her life in London, she begins attending strangers' funerals, a ritual sparked by the discovery of her late sister Melodie's journal.
As the anniversary of Melodie's death nears, Bee's grip on reality loosens, revealing a complex, painful history between the sisters. Set between Ireland and the rugged coast of Northwest Spain, No Flowers is a lyrical exploration of grief, memory and the fierce love between siblings.
