Summer 1916. Edward's shoulder injury sends him home to fiancee Eleanor for convalescence, where he becomes unnerved not only by shell-shock, but also his feelings towards the estate's new farmhand.

Summer 1916. Edward returns home from France with a shrapnel injury to his shoulder and is welcomed by his devoted fiancée, Eleanor. Yet the peaceful convalescence he longs for is unsettled not only by shell-shock, but also a new presence on the estate - one that awakens emotions he thought he buried in the trenches. ‘Lavender’ explores themes of trauma, acceptance, and navigating the balance between duty and desire.
