Frankie (LUCY SCOTT-SMITH) and George (TOM ASHLEY) have been together since they were teenagers. They have forgotten how to be in love.
One weekend. Two contrasting days. An intimate portrait of a long term relationship, overshadowed by decisions made in the past.
Saturday is stifling and claustrophobic. The couple's house feels small, like a prison cell; the garden an exercise yard.
Sunday sees the couple walking on the blustery hills of the South Downs. Out in the open, looking down on the town where they live, they gain a new perspective.

Stories have power. They engage, beguile, inspire, motivate, challenge. They help us understand the world and see it from new perspectives.
We tell stories that connect people with ideas, and with each other. We tell stories to entertain and to educate.
We develop and produce our own productions to tell the stories that are important to us. We work with some of the world's leading brands (and very cool smaller ones too) to produce award-winning communications.
Each and every project is a collaboration. We love what we do - and believe the creative process should be fun and rewarding for all involved.
If you have a project you would like to discuss, drop us a line with a brief outline of your goals and we will arrange a free telephone consultation with Founder and Creative Director, Ben Verrall, at a time convenient for you.
Heads up: the shoutbox will be retiring soon. It’s tired of working, and can’t wait to relax. You can still send a message to the channel owner, though!
