WISH LIST
Af Katherine Soper
1 D / 2 H
Drama

“I dreamt about this last night. I dreamt that I was packing boxes in boxes in boxes.”

Tamsin pakker kasser på et lager. På tid. Uden fast kontrakt. Hendes bror Dean er bundet til hjemmet, hvor han dagen lang udfører sine OCD-ritualer. Da Dean pludselig erklæres arbejdsegnet og hans understøttelse dermed stopper, må Tamsin kæmpe for at kunne forsørge dem begge uden udsigt til at kunne leve sit eget liv og udleve sine egne drømme.
