SECOND HAND PROBLEMS

We've been cooking this one for quite a while now, and we can't wait for you to meet these characters!

Six women, three stories, one limbo. Will they ever find their way out?
2022 - Alice is getting married today. Carol had four husbands, but it didn't end well with the last one…. Meeting over a bargain box in a charity shop, they soon discover the horrific truth about their existence and hang on to their only hope of retribution.
2005 - Cat is trying to fill in a form at an abortion clinic and make the hardest decision of her life when her dead mother appears to stir things up. Is she going crazy, or do they have unfinished business?
1985 - Mel is looking to escape the commotion of her mother's wake, and in the basement, she finds a weird tape revealing a secret q***r past. Will she find the courage to break the cycle of shame her family is stuck in?
Second Hand Problems is a wacky, honest and moving tragi-comedy about the shared griefs and joys of being a woman and the importance of sisterhood. These stories highlight how women can help each other through life's darkest moments.

P.S.1: Watch this space for an upcoming casting & collaboration calls!
P.S.2: We know this looks incredibly connected, but the "Second" in Second Hand Problems is not related to the "Second" in The Second Junction! Confusing, right?? More to be revealed soon...
