In A Day

Synopsis

A drama. A comedy. A romance with an edge. Your life can be turned upside down in a day.

One ordinary morning, young struggling musician Ashley Branstead (Lorraine Pilkington) suffers a shocking encounter with a stranger.
This disturbing assault inadvertently triggers what becomes a very intriguing day with another stranger, her apparent knight in shining armour, seemingly genuine - but odd - Michael (Finlay Robertson).
By his subtle and not so subtle persuasions Ashley finds herself spending an enchanting but unusual day with the spontaneous Michael, quickly becoming captivated by his generosity and charm. But all is not as it seems.

Ashley begins to suspect that his actions might have an ulterior motive. Who is the mysterious stranger? What are his true intentions and who is he acting for?

When his secret is eventually revealed the truth threatens to destroy their whirlwind romance.

Some days you wish had never started, then along comes one you hope will never end. Anything can happen in a day.
