'Waverley' is an intimate portrait of an ageing
woman whose ordered existence is disturbed by a
random accident. Whilst seemingly trivial, the accident
triggers a deep-seated emotional crisis and a palpable
sense of unease develops. Lying beneath her apparent
veneer of self sufficiency is a troubled mind. As
the space around her becomes more threatening and
the darkness closes in, Waverley is forced to confront
her past and to try to come to terms with her hidden
demons.
