Frank is a reformed alcoholic. He lives at home with his mother,
Elisabeth - at least, he did until she went into a nursing home
suffering from dementia. He is devoted to her and conversely hates
his estranged father, Geoffrey. So when elder sister Pat calls to
tell him Dad is dying and wants to meet him, Frank is forced to
face up to his demons. But what are they? And how did he acquire
them? Every family has its secrets and Frank's is no exception. As
much as he tries to forget, something happened a long time ago that
has coloured his life ever since - and he can't live in peace until
he confronts it. Seen from the perspective of four separate family
members, The Burden examines an individual's contrasting
relationships and the different emotions they inspire.
