Three very different women’s lives fleetingly intersect as they search for belonging in an upside down world.Natalia, a mail-order bride from Siberia, arrives in Aotearoa to discover that her dream of running a café at her new husband’s remote petrol station, is far from reality.

Anaesthetist Briar lives in exhausted chaos, cheered up by an online relationship with her elder sister’s ex boyfriend Tim. Their romantic weekend away disintegrates when Briar hits and injures a kahu in the middle of nowhere and is determined to keep it alive. Faith is shocked when she discovers that a block of flats she purchased on behalf of her absent husband, included a dead tenant in its chattels. Driven by her empathy for Rita’s lonely death, Faith is determined to find a way to honour Rita’s life.

Cast: Elizabeth Hawthorne, Loren Taylor and Victoria Haralabidou.
