Teenage girls Mairy McIlkenny (Catholic) and Christine Savage (Protestant) are growing up in post-war Belfast, in the same city but cut off from each other by high peace walls to keep the two communities apart creating divisions as brutal as ever, nearly a decade into the peace process. The legacy to the young generation is clear: You don't mix. But this year their lives will take turns they never in their wildest dreams could imagine.
