84 year old cellist Ceri has lost his husband to cancer and his ability to play to a debilitating stroke. His dull life is spent in solitude, save for the interruptions of agency carers and the solace of his I-pad. Seizing the opportunity that a night time staff shortage brings, he uses Grindr to invite 20 year old rent-boy Iestyn to visit. To Ceri’s surprise, Iestyn is a Violinist at a near-by conservatoire who is supporting himself through sex work. An appreciation of contemporary orchestral music instantly bonds them; but when it’s time to get down to business, we find Ceri was looking for a very different experience to the one Iestyn had expected to provide.
