Following a traumatic holiday, Hannah and Cliff return to England to a household where the atmosphere is so tense you could cut it with a knife. They try to take stock of this turning point while struggling to work out where they need to go next. Both are faced with the possibility of dealing with long forgotten traumas and realising abandoned dreams. But how to get from here to there? Where to start?
