Despite having a young fiancée, Flora, straight-laced Michael finds himself falling for Thomas’ bohemian charms; their relationship, however, is made impossible by societal pressures.
2017: In a more accepting world, an ageing Flora looks on as her grandson Adam tentatively forms a relationship with his client Steve. But while the external obstacles have fallen away, a minefield of internalised issues and dangerous temptations still line the road to happiness...
