The world premiere of a new radio play by Albuquerque playwright Mark Dunn.
An elderly woman, Althea, is selling her home to move in with her sister for health reasons.
When a young man, Leif, comes to look at the house they find a 5,000 piece jigsaw puzzle
in the basement and, joined by a neighbor and later by Leif’s wife, they stay up all night
in order to finish the puzzle. Through the course of the night, as the image in the puzzle
slowly reveals itself, so do their lives, and by morning the gaps have been filled in
and a new future emerges for all of them.
