Hayley Lawson-Smith’s Absorption is a supernatural mystery-thriller and sharp examination of modern motherhood. It is a shrewdly observed take on social dynamics and helicopter parenting that captures the all too familiar and unnerving aspects of mothers in the school playground.

A group of women take part in an experiment to observe the independence of their children. But all is not as it seems…

Absorption was first produced by Baggage Productions premiering at the MC Showroom on July 17, 2019.
