Hundreds and Thousands

A dark and twisted tale about deciding what's more important - doing what's right, or what's right for you. Deafened by the tick of her biological clock, Lorna pins all her hopes for true love on Allan. But she soon discovers that life in his isolated farmhouse raises disturbing questions, not happy endings... As the horror of Allan's world is exposed, will Lorna do what's right or turn a blind eye to get what she wants?
