In the run-up to Christmas, three groups of strangers are placed in cramped temporary accommodation: a middle-aged man and his elderly mother, a young couple with a baby on the way, and a newly arrived woman from Sudan. The comfort is minimal, no space is personal, and nagging worries about the future make mutual support nearly impossible. Alexander Zeldin's gentle and uncompromising play, drawn from real testimony, bears witness to the precarious lives of the most vulnerable while revealing the stubborn, necessary power of love.
