But babies just don't arrive from out of the blue, and despite JOSIE'S explanations, her sister, RUTH becomes suspicious. When RUTH reads a baby has been abducted she goes to the police, and despite JOSIE'S protests, the baby is taken away. Solicitors and therapists try to get the 'truth' from JOSIE, who realises that her only way out is to confess to the abduction, again and again. Years later JOSIE meets a young student, PAUL, who is uncannily like JAMES and before long they become lovers. PAUL finds the photographs of JAMES which JOSIE had hidden away. He accuses her of using him to replace her old lover, but realises there is more to the situation than that. Disgusted with JOSIE, he leaves her, despite her protests, once again alone.

When Arlo arrives to find Marcus has cooked someone else’s favourite meal, a single question begins to unravel an evening that refuses to stay in the present. Through a fractured timeline set entirely within one dining room, we move between Marcus and Arlo and the relationship that came before, with Una, the woman he met at a late-night bus stop and once talked about marrying. The same table, the same chairs, the same arguments about trust, honesty and what it means to truly see someone. As the timelines bleed together, it becomes clear that Marcus has never fully left the past, and that Una’s ghost sits at every table he sets. When Arlo asks what her own favourite meal is and he cannot answer, the film’s quiet devastation lands completely. CLOCKS is a portrait of a man who loves generously but sees poorly, and the women who carry the cost. It asks what we owe the person in front of us while we are still in love with someone we lost, and whether a feeling ever truly ends.
