The Lockdown Diaries: Recent Episodes
Clementine Ford
Superstitions. Anxiety. Hope. Adventure. Love. Possibilities.
Writer Clementine Ford explores these themes and more in these short vignettes, written, recorded and produced from her kitchen during Melbourne's Covid-19 lockdown. Set against the backdrop of Melbourne both during and prior to the global pandemic, they are above all a tribute to a city and the love that lives within it.
Clementine remembers a night spent with Alice just before the first round of lockdowns, and then the nights spent afterwards as they both attempt to wrestle some kind of narrative meaning out of the pandemic.
