Listen carefully…
Three women.
Three conversations. 

As the details of what they share begin to diverge, we realise that a subtle game of survival is being played. Both psychological puzzle and quietly devastating tragedy, Mark O'Rowe's The Approach explores the inner lives of Anna, Cora, and Denise as they desperately try to make sense of their world.
