Twenty-six Takes on Life without Allen

Synopsis

When Allen is hospitalised in a coma, fiancée Cathy and best mate Danny use a Handycam to 'communicate' with him. What starts out as a birthday present for Allen, to 'have a laugh' when he gets back and see that he hasn't 'missed much', shifts an already complex relationship into uncharted territory.
