In a complex tale of interweaving relationships, a Greek immigrant in London explores the meaning of what it is to love and heal. Poised follows the story of 嗄ris, a gay Occupational Therapist who carries the weight of a previous relationship gone wrong. Yet, a chance encounter with Richard seems to allow him the chance to love again. 嗄s 嗄ris' relationship with Richard deepens, so too does his friendship with 嗄nna, a patient in his care who suffers from a rare neurological syndrome that leaves her paralysed. 嗄nna recovers the use of her limbs, but finds that she has come to rely on 嗄ris for much more than just his support. In fact, her discovery that her husband has been unfaithful during her illness triggers the realisation that her feelings for 嗄ris are romantic. The ties that bind emotion and propriety begin to unravel, and the tangled net that is woven will hold a secret that will catch them all.
