- Synopsis
- Married for 45 years, without children, Kate and
  Geoff Mercer are poised to celebrate their wedding
  anniversary with a party, when Geoff receives a
  letter that shakes both of them. The letter, from
  Switzerland, lets him know that a body has been
  found: that of Katya, his girlfriend before Kate,
  who died falling into a fissure in a glacier when the
  couple were on a walking holiday in 1962. Geoff
  tells Kate that he was regarded as Katya’s next-of-kin,
  since they had been pretending to be married.
  Though Kate continues to prepare for the party,
  and the couple shares some romantic excitement
  about it, she becomes increasingly disturbed by Geoff’s preoccupation with Katya. Geoff begins
  smoking again; reminisces at length about his
  carefree time with his previous love; seeks out
  photographs of her in the attic; and complains
  bitterly about the way his contemporaries and excolleagues have aged. Under Kate’s questioning,
  he states that he would have married Katya had she
  lived. While Geoff is at a work lunch, Kate searches
  the attic and finds slides of Katya, which reveal that
  she was pregnant at the time of her death. As the
  celebrations grow closer, they delve further into
  their past, leaving their future in question.
