Weathering

Weathering

by Lucy Wood

In the ethereal riverbank setting of a rain-soaked English valley, the spirit of Pearl lingers after her death, as tangled in the tempestuous environment as she was in life. With the weary house she inhabited standing as the final testament to her existence, her daughter Ada and granddaughter Pepper, whom she never met, return for closure. Ada's intention to scatter Pearl's ashes and vacate the memories housed in the dilapidated structure is challenged by the valley's enigmatic allure. As Pepper discovers the mystique of the valley through its quirky inhabitants and the mesmerizing river, Ada confronts her past and the tangible imprints that people and places leave behind. 'Weathering' explores the profound connection between our environment and our very beings, highlighting how some bonds defy the passage of time and the notion of moving on.
