In POISON we encounter a man (Lucas) and a woman (Edith) who are seeing each other again for the first time in ten years at the cemetery where their only child is buried. They're meeting after many years apart - the body of their son Jacob needs to be exhumed because toxins have seeped into the ground. We follow them over the course of an afternoon, while they wait for their meeting with the cemetery's caretaker - who never turns up. During the course of the afternoon, both Edith and Lucas drop their masks, and secrets are revealed. Lucas has remarried, his new wife is pregnant and he is writing a book about the loss of his son. Edith has never been able to move on despite doing her best to pretend to. It slowly becomes clear that their whole meeting is based on one big lie. Edith fabricated the event to lure Lucas into meeting her after all these years, without knowing what it is exactly that she is looking for. It’s not until Edith and Lucas have exposed their vulnerabilities to each other that they are able to let each other go, and each go their own way.
