Overheard presents - Aged
Sharon, a care worker, has built a close relationship with Charlie, an elderly man with early onset dementia that she cares for. While carrying out her daily duties in his home during lockdown, she overhears his conversations with his two sons, Brian and Sean. Through a series of socially distant interactions between them, Sharon learns that Brian and Sean seem to be taking an increased interest in their father’s assets, particularly in an important key to a security deposit box. Driven by her compassion for Charlie, Sharon makes a decision that may go beyond her duty of care.
