SYNOPSIS

"Colours can have meanings and represent different feelings ... now that I'm old I look back and savour it, because colours can change and their meanings re-arrange".

When Freddy refuses to take Poppy to visit their father Max in prison, she goes alone. Bombarded with questions on whether she is helping Freddy do the 'work' Max left them, Poppy decides to take things into her own hands. Will her actions to save her moral conscience be accepted by those she holds dearest?
