A tragi-comedy about refusing - or at least delaying - the inevitable. Written by and starring Amelia Bullmore. Lizzie is shocked by the collapse and decay she finds when she returns to her childhood home but, refusing to be daunted, she resolves to get on top of it. Several skips later, the house and her past have got on top of her. Lacking sleep and immersed in the detritus of her youth, she starts to behave strangely, attracting the attention of the neighbours.
