How To Fall Flat On Your Face
Scroll ↓
Where does your mind wander when you wait?
Anna falls flat on her face and spends a day in a London hospital corridor, waiting. Sitting in a city that is not her own, her mind wanders between past and present…
She is obsessive — committed to perfection. So much so, she will chase down an old lady in Super Value to grab the RIGHT tulips — Anna needed the cream bunch to match her tea towels.
A funny and dark deep dive into how ‘sweating the small stuff’ can escalate. How did Anna fall, and will she find her way home?
