THE ALMOND AND THE SEAHORSE is a funny and touching story about people who have suffered brain injuries and it shows how their lives with their loved ones have been affected.

An archaeologist and an architect fight to re-imagine a future after a traumatic brain injury leaves them adrift from the people they love.

The year never changes for Gwen, it is always 1999 for her. She neither recognises her face in the mirror, nor her partner, though she wakes next to her every morning.

Joe’s past is completely lost on him and his partner Sarah is terrified he will simply forget her too. Dr. Falmer, the doctor, never ceases to encourage and give hope to them all
