Sublime, Urgent & Original
An utterly sublime radio drama! In the true, original, awesome, terrifying, unsettlingly compelling sense of the word.
The narrative unfolds into an epic thriller, which also manages to explore some significantly large philosophical, scientific and socio-political themes.
The atmosphere conjured by the writing is mysterious, unsettling and tense whilst remaining completely compelling. A brilliantly woven mystery unfolds and takes you into unexpected territory, exploring concepts & areas that are simultaneously cosmic yet scarily domestic.
This story could hardly be more relevant for today's socio-political climate. And even whilst exploring such a serious world it manages to miraculously leave the listener with an unnerving dissonance created by conjuring feelings of awe, hope, paranoia and foreboding, all at once.
A dramatic, high-concept, satirical, socio-political, thriller masterclass.
