Synopsis

"Life was standing still, waiting for Liz to fall into its trap." Elizabeth Smith, recently made redundant, thinks that her life is deadly dull. She feels like cellophane – like people look right through her, like she's not even there. A simple redecoration job involving a mirror turns her life upside down. Through ominous horror and an unexpected romance Liz learns to become a whole person – someone who takes up space in the world, and demands to be herself. Part gentle love story, part bizarre horror tale, but never, ever boring, Ms Cellophane is a revealing look at one woman's nightmare transforming her reality in unexpectedly amusing ways.
