Playing Life archiveBased on a true-story, Playing Life is a compelling drama portraying the difficulties encountered by a woman haunted by the past and her journey to recovery through her love of jazz. Louise arrives for work bedraggled; the rain has soaked her through to the core leaving her spirits drained both emotionally and physically. An excellent singer, she uses music as an outlet for her problems. As she goes through the motions in preparation for her performance, she begins to reveal the dark secrets of her stolen childhood and how her love of jazz has enabled her self-expression, leading her to a new-found understanding and, ultimately, forgiveness.
