What about spontaneity?
What about you know.
Passion, impulse, imagination?
What about when you just have to walk across a room and kiss somebody?

Will and Cait have escaped to the countryside, to raise their young son, write children’s books and eat wholesome home cooking night after night.  But a wayward Christmas card finds its way to a long-lost friend that they had secretly hoped would stay lost.

Griff is on a mission to prove himself a changed man, with the past long behind him – but in a world where everything feels said and done already, is change possible?  Are we doomed to repeat our past mistakes?  Are we doomed to repeat ourselves?

In a witty, dark drama about marriage, property, creativity and fish recipes, The Kiss explores the struggle between safety and spontaneity, passion and greed.
