Fifty Pairs of Unworn Shoes

Details

Lifelong friends Eva and Angharad meet at a condemned primary school where fifty children died. Heavily pregnant, Eva is staging a sit-in to prevent the bulldozers moving in, but Angharad, who lives opposite the school, agrees with the authorities that the building must come down. With the river threatening to flood the building and the arrival of Eva's baby imminent, emotions run high, forcing the women to confront the past and think about the future. Yet, in the wake of such tragedy, can they ever move on? An intense two-hander exploring the part memorials play within our lives.
