About this listen
Mim Lyons is a retired film actress, occasionally still recognised from her last great starring role in the late 1960s, but she's now more than content to stay away from the limelight.
When her agent calls out of the blue with a job offer, her husband begins to have his own dreams and schemes about the possibility of a comeback, in a part that unsettles Mim's perception of how her husband sees her and of who she really is.
As Mim struggles to preserve the quiet surface of her existence, it becomes impossible to ignore the turmoil in the lives of those closest to her.
