Lark (Ayumi Patterson) is a quiet kind of person, observant, meditative. She’s never really pushed herself in life, beyond studying hard, so there is surprise when she falls in with the most popular older students in her postgraduate law school and is invited to go on a trip with them. Staying in a converted pilgrim-era chapel of the sort that people in the US think of as really old, she herself becomes a novelty because of her relative youth, but finds herself drifting along, observing, as the others connect and quarrel and do the sorts of things protagonists do. Awkwardly distanced as she is, and denied explanations of the things which initially seem important, she might ultimately end up understanding more about the dynamics of the group than its members do.
Hadley (Isabelle Chester) is the group’s queen bee, but she’s uncomfortable when, on arrival, she finds out that her.
