Homebodies on SBS and SBS on Demand – Starring Claudia Karvan, Luke Wiltshire, Jazi Dall and Roxie Mohebbi.
When trans man Darcy reluctantly returns to his regional hometown Torwoo to care for his estranged mother Nora, he’s shocked to discover that she has secretly been living with Dee, the ghost of his pre-transition self – who manifested two years earlier.
Nora hopes Darcy’s arrival might help them all move forward. Trapped in the house with her mum, Dee is a powder keg of teen emotions, which manifest in flickering lights and electrical short circuits. However, Darcy and Dee clash, competing for their mother’s attention. On the outer, feeling replaced, Darcy accuses Nora of manifesting Dee. Through a misguided exorcism, Darcy unwittingly unlocks Dee’s ability to leave the property, and she flees to town. He is horrified when he tracks her down and discovers that she can now be seen by others.
This ghost is becoming more and more real, but he is slowly losing his own reflection. Is Darcy at risk of fading altogether?
