As she goes around London, memories of the past embrace her and she is left introspecting about the decisions she has made in life and love. In another part of the city, Septimus Warren Smith, a veteran of the First World War, is spending the day with his wife. He is suffering from shell shock and hallucinations.What happens as their day and life entwines?
