And Violet

Synopsis

A coming of age drama set in Edinburgh about the interwoven and unravelling lives of teenage daughter Violet, and her two mothers.
When Violet and her adoptive mum Cathy unexpectedly run into Violet’s estranged birth-mum Zoe, the mothers clash. As Violet struggles to navigate this complicated relationship, becoming increasingly confused and angry, Cathy struggles to help her.
The meeting also triggers something in Zoe, who decides to change the direction of her life. She returns to Edinburgh, not only a city that holds dark memories of a difficult past for her, but it’s the place where Violet lives.
Violet and Zoe reconnect secretly online, but Cathy finds out and brings all communications to an abrupt end. Violet rebels against her and as Zoe self-destructively spirals out of control, Cathy must urgently try to find a way back in to Violet’s life.
