Synopsis
What happens when a woman loses her identity and becomes lost in domesticity? Ann Johnson knows exactly what happens, because it happened to her. One day she was a young woman with hopes, dreams and expectations. In the blink of an eye she was middle-aged with two grown up children and her dreams lost somewhere between Asda and Iceland. Fate takes a hand and suddenly she is on her own, lost in the unfamiliar world of high-tech gadgets and un-paid bills.
Somehow she has to act before she disappears into a quagmire of self-loathing and insecurity. With the help (or hindrance) from her somewhat interfering next- door neighbour Hilary, Ann starts to re-build her life. Can she find a way to start learning to love herself again and to re-kindle the life she once envisaged.
Her husband Bill, although gone, is not going to let her achieve her goals without trying to interfere for one last time. A poignant and sometimes hilarious look at life, love, marriage and unfulfilled ambitions. |
