Adagio

One piece of music has been the soundtrack to Sian's life. Expressing herself through her violin, she was somehow never quite able to unpick the strands in the fuque - the self-harm, the drinking, the depression, the panic, the anxiety. After many years, an assault at work signals the start of a series of bitter losses and the beginnings of a therapeutic pathway that is orchestrated for her, not by her. Suddenly, a flashback to childhood trauma opens up memories and she picks up her violin once more, still searching for a recognised diagnosis and a clear therapeutic pathway.
