LIFE
CLASS
Four
people hide secrets from the world and from themselves. Dory is disillusioned
by men and relationships, having seen the damage sex can do. Her sister, Fran, deals with her mid-life
crisis by pursuing an on-line flirtation which turns threatening. Dominic is a
lost boy, trapped in a life heading for self-destruction. Stefan feels a failure. He searches for
validation through his art alone.
They
meet regularly at a life-drawing class, led by sculptor Stefan. All want a life
that is different from the one they have, but all have made mistakes they know
they cannot escape. They must uncover the past – and the truths that come with
it - before they can make sense of the present and navigate a new path into the
future.

Thanks for having me, Pauline. I'm feeling a bit under the weather at the moment so the opportunity to lie in the sun, by the lapping turquoise water of your pool (revealing all), is very welcome! Gillix
