Synopsis

Violet is the archetypal eccentric old woman. She wears a turban well and cooks a mean chicken soup. The character of Violet is constructed from the memories that three women have of three different influential women from their past. These memories are woven together to create one woman and reenactments are utilised to flesh out the flamboyant reclusive character of Violet.
