Synopsis

A daughter and her mother play out a psychological drama that is the culmination of a lifetime of poor communication and limited understanding. Laced with humour and a bit of the macabre, the play runs continuously in real time – the time the characters live through is equal to the running of the play. Jessie is going to kill herself and there is little or nothing Mama can do about it?
