Fiction
Portuguese immigrant Aurora works as a warehouse picker in a vast fulfilment centre in Scotland. Trapped between the confines of her workplace and her flatshare, Aurora seeks to resist the loneliness, alienation and ensuing small talk which begin to threaten her sense of self. Set against a landscape dominated by an algorithm-driven gig economy designed to keep us apart, ON FALLING explores the vital struggle to find meaning and connection.
