This first episode opens in a residential centre, where artist-in-residence Karin tries to engage Andrew in a project. He's remained shut down since he arrived a few weeks ago but, when he learns Karin is a photographer, he starts to show an interest. He tells her he once took 1000 pictures of graffiti in Manchester but lost his camera before his last spell in prison. Karin has an idea to get him moving again.
