Green Grass

A checked-out undergrad gets lumped with the new Deaf classmate and starts to discover the cost of his life’s choices, set in the seagrass meadows and stuffy classrooms of the British coast. Declan is a disengaged biology student who cares more about drawing than his degree, but now in his second year, where grades count, even his closest friends don’t want to partner with him for this term’s assignment. Out of options, Declan is forced to work with the new girl, Claire, a proud and ambitious Deaf eco-activist pushing through the lack of accessibility in universities. On the mudflats and pebbled shores of the south English coast, their different attitudes quickly bubble to the surface, but so might long- hidden secrets and a friendship if they stand in the seagrass long enough.
