AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Fiona and Simon are living the daily grind, plodding through life with work and bills and hangovers.

But when an old friend arrives to crash on their couch, their already shaky relationship is rocked to its very core. What does it really mean to be free? To be beautiful? To be happy?

As the couple fight to hold onto the status quo, they are thrown into a whirlwind of self-examination, which will ultimately tear them further apart or bring them closer than they ever imagined.' (Source: http://www.cathoderaytube.com.au/ )
