After the tragic death of her daughter Lily, Hannah searches for ways to reconnect and process her grief through increasingly daring and innovative artistic expression. Hannah becomes obsessed with death, children and duality, to the point at which sudden appearances of Lily’s ghost and Hannah’s own doubles begin to manifest - possibly from her imagination or perhaps from the fringes of reality. Diving deep into her art, using unprecedented photographic techniques, Hannah teeters on the edge of madness as she struggles to come to terms with her loss. Inspired by the life of photographer Hannah Maynard (1834-1918).
