It's Spring,
It's 1993,
It's Grebe Park, Inverness,
It's 4pm
It's you and me,
It's us against them,
It's a risk,
It's OK.

It's Ok, It's Only Temporary is based on a true event where, in childhood, Jenna was the victim of an act of violence carried out by her peers. It was an accident, a moment where play took a naive but deliberate step into something more serious. 20 years later, Jenna recounts the hours leading up to this incident, demonstrates its explosive effect and tries to reclaim this violent act using apples and a baseball bat.
