Description
One morning Apricot Jones wakes up to graffiti on her front door and a man in a black Jaguar who calls himself the Baglan Giant looking for her mom, Carys. Apricot and her best friend Charlie must find the secret that Carys is keeping and come to terms with parts of themselves that are lost while reaching out to new beginnings. Set on the Sandfields estate and the sea's edge, and structured by the omnipresent steelworks, this is a darkly comic tale of what it means to be alive, seventeen and living in Port Talbot.
