Synopsis

Paris, the early 1980s


It is eight o'clock, and the final glimpse of light has just disappeared. The parquetry floorboards are cold, and so is the whisky next to the typewriter. Down sits Vivienne, her hair tied back. Taking a small sip of whisky from the lowball glass, she stares pensively out the window. With every mouthful taken and every key pressed, her reality is challenged. Can writing scaffold the walls that are caving in?


Will Ink Suffice intimately follows Vivienne as she navigates her new-found independence after leaving home to pursue her studies at university. However, a string of unfortunate events causes her to spiral, leaving her with nothing, except a question. Will Ink Suffice?
