Encounter is the story of a missing cat, an unhappy teenager, a lonely little girl, a single mum and a tramp. The tramp, invited by the little girl, comes into the family home at Christmas time and has an effect on each one of them. He has a surprising gentleness and wisdom that works to soften relationships between mother and daughters. And of course he has his own stories to tell, which unfold as the story develops.

"Encounter is a poignant relationship drama, part fairy-tale and part real life."
