The First Holy Communion, a bastion of Irish tradition and culture, is fast approaching and eight-year-old Rúbaí flatly refuses to be a part of it. She's an atheist and proud of it and whilst she is happy to stand by her convictions the wider society has a problem with such an independent girl and her crazy ideas. Rúbaí wants to stay true to who she is but faces emotional blackmail, religious and philosophical debate and out and out intolerance in today's supposedly diverse and modern Ireland.
