FILM SYNOPSIS

Sunday afternoon is Scrabble day for an elderly couple. The sunny scene opens with the old man's hateful inner monologue as he is forced to take part for the umpteenth time in a ritual he loathes. His wife meticulously sets up the game, ignoring his exasperation. But the game suddenly intensifies when the old man realises that the words being played are becoming reality.
