Yasmin feels rage towards the city she used to call home, but Aisha sees a different London from her best friend.

Free Falling looks at the idea of falling, failing and the determination to recover. Hagit Yakira has created a powerful and atmospheric programme based on a collection of stories gathered over her years of working as a dance movement therapist.
