'A mother asks her daughter, "Do you remember your father being a sad man?" This question releases recollections of childhood, of the loves and tensions in the triangular relationship of child and parents. 'Watermark' explores - through differing prisms of memory - a moment of disintegration in this relationship. The judges of the Ian Reed Competition for young playwrights called this prize-winning work 'compelling and poignant - powerfully suggestive and knife-sharp.' Suneeta Peres da Costa paints a remarkable and compassionate audio picture of a pivotal event in three people's lives.'
