Here's more info, I found this just after I posted the previous message:

"Northern Ireland Screen will also support Green Park Films' CHERRY
BOMB. Written by Armagh man Daragh Caville (Middletown), the film
follows teenagers Luke, Malachy and Michelle as they embark on a wild
weekend of drink, drugs, shop-lifting and stealing cars. But what
starts out as a game turns deadly serious when the three discover that
they can't get off the wild ride they've set in motion. CHERRY BOMB
will shoot on location in Northern Ireland and is produced by
Belfast's Michael Casey (Freeze Frame; Middletown; My Boy Jack) and
directed by Lisa Barros d'Sa and Glen Leyburn."
