Synopsis: | Glimpse was created through six weeks working with dementia patients and their carers at a day centre in the Scottish borders. Glimpse is the story of an archaeologist who has forgotten her greatest discovery. Affected by dementia, she lives in a world where her television talks to her and flowers grow from the walls of her room. Four hundred years before, an old woman is stranded with her son in the bleak wilderness of Sutherland, surrounded by the peat bogs that eventually claim her life. As the dawn emerges, so does the connection between these ghostly figures, centuries apart but strangely linked by an umbilical chord that spans the ages. | |||||
